CO2 Offset

API

Calculate and validate carbon footprints for sustainable decisions

Overview

The CO2 Offset API offers RESTful endpoints to compute carbon footprints across activities (transport, energy, waste) and validate offset claims. Responses are JSON-formatted, including emission breakdowns and offset legitimacy statuses. Key endpoints: /calculate (POST with activity parameters) and /validate-offset (GET/POST with offset ID). Ideal for businesses tracking operational emissions, eco-apps adding footprint tools, or organizations verifying offset purchases to meet sustainability goals.
