|  |  |  | | Offset Your
Carbon Footprint! |
There are 2 types of carbon offsetting programs, and although neither one is perfect they definitely help. Pro-active programs usually help fund renewable energy sources and look to solutions for a cleaner future. These programs usually focus on supporting clean energy and its progression, in the form of wind power, solar power, hydroelectric power and biofuel. The re-active offset programs help to offset pollution that has already been expelled into the atmosphere. These programs focus on planting trees which will consume the carbon dioxide that is in the atmosphere now, to help clean up the mess we make daily. We suggest offsetting your carbon footprint with Sustainable Travel International and MyClimate. Their program is the best we've seen in that it's comprehensive and supports both kinds of offsets. They'll let you calculate your exact offset, or you can choose a standard donation from $1 all the way up to $500. CLICK HERE to learn more or to offset your footprint now.
