Trusted climate action
Copa airlines is enabling travelers to better understand and to help address their carbon emissions. When you fly with Copa, you can then support certified carbon projects that reduce or remove CO2 emissions in an amount equivalent to the carbon footprint of your trip.
How it works
Estimate your carbon emissions
Based on your travel information, we will estimate your individual carbon footprint based on the type of aircraft you are traveling with. Our CO2 emissions calculations are based on International Air Transport Association (IATA) Recommended Practice - RP 1726.
Understand your carbon footprint and take climate action
Once you understand the carbon emissions associated with your flight, the option to help address these emissions will be presented during the process of purchasing your ticket. If selected, you will receive an email receipt with a downloadable certificate confirming your support of carbon projects.
Support trusted carbon projects
You help address your carbon emissions by supporting a selection of high-impact carbon project. Our project portfolio is verified by the most stringent international standards, and each project either reduces or removes global CO2 emissions.
Individual impact, collective change: the importance of understanding and caring about your carbon footprint
As individuals, our day-to-day lives and activities generate carbon emissions. This resulting, individual carbon footprint contributes to the overall amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, which is a leading cause of climate change. By being mindful of our carbon footprint and making conscious efforts to reduce it, we can help mitigate the effects of climate change and create a more sustainable future for ourselves and future generations. Furthermore, reducing our carbon footprint can also lead to personal benefits, such as cost savings, improved air quality, and increased health and well-being.
