Carbon Offset Producer (COP)
Christine Dunstan Productions (CDP) supports the practice of carbon trading and has committed to making a regular investment against the emissions which result from our touring productions.
With the introduction of CDP Carbon Offset Productions (COP), we will ensure that the greenhouse gas emissions released into the atmosphere as a result of flights, road, rail and shipping transport undertaken in the course of our touring are offset.
With the launch of this initiative, CDP extends an invitation to Presenters (and to other Producers) to join the force by become COPs - Carbon Offsetting Presenters or Carbon Offsetting Producers. Having purchased the carbon credits from Climate Positive for each tour, CDP COP will calculate a per performance rate and invite each participating presenter to match our contribution dollar for dollar by purchasing carbon credits for the transport component of each performance they presented.
By purchasing carbon credits as a COP through a designated account with an established and respected carbon offset provider, such as Climate Positive, records and statistics of our industry's contribution to offsetting can be identified. The result will effectively work toward neutralizing our emissions and actively reducing the equivalent amount of carbon from our environment, whilst being very achievable financially.
We see CDP COP as a practical and active way to participate in healthy carbon controls achieving real-time carbon reductions.
CDP is an award winning theatre production house specialising in boutique theatre of the highest quality. Renowned for our touring expertise, our productions are seen in theatres throughout Australia in capital cities as well as metropolitan, regional and remote communities.
