In fact, there are countless offset projects in the $1-$15/tonne range, as well:https://offset.climateneutralnow.org/allprojects
The total offsetting budget would not need to be too enourmous, yet it could be impactful.

Hello Bence,
Very nice, thank you to have shared the link.
I have picked a project in Malawi to replace cooking fires with a fuel efficient stove:
https://offset.climateneutralnow.org/improved-cook-stove-project-1-nkhata-ba...
There are even progress reports: https://cdm.unfccc.int/Projects/DB/TUEV-SUED1397540352.85/view
If I got it right, they have 38 000 tonnes per year at $8.50 for a total of $323 000.
Given the foundation emitted 2100 tonnes in a year, that would cover 18 years of emission! For an extra few thousands we could probably have a Wikipedia sticker on the stoves to raise awareness ;-]
In short, I am a bit amazed at how "cheap" it is to offset a tonne of CO2 as well as how "little" the foundation generates.
