What does Carbon Neutral mean?
Even if you drive a hybrid car, use compact fluorescent lighting and take
every energy saving step you can, you are still going to use some energy and
create CO2 pollution.

 There’s only one
way to do something about the CO2 pollution you can’t avoid creating – help
reduce CO2 pollution another way, purchase credits to offset the carbon you
create from companies that are developing harnessing natural sources of
energy. Essentially you’re donating to a cleaner future by offsetting your
emissions today.

Global Warming Information
 The overwhelming majority of scientists agree, global warming caused by
waste gases produced by the burning of fossil fuels combined with other air
pollutants is changing the world’s climate. Left unchecked, the results of
this will be dire and far-reaching. See
Global Warming by the Numbers for some interesting statistics.
 Glaciers
are melting ten times faster than previously thought.
A new scientific study revealed that by summer 2040 -- only 33 years from
now -- the Arctic Ocean could be mostly open water due to global warming!
CO2 emissions from fossil fuels have more than tripled since the 1950’s and
emissions are predicted to double from their current level by 2054 if we
keep on our current path.
All this will result in extreme weather patterns, widespread drought and
flooding, in increase in insect-borne disease, disruption of species and
eco-systems and a host of other problems by the end of this century. Scary
stuff! The good news is, we can reduce our emissions to manageable levels
using the technology we have available today! Let’s make going Carbon
Neutral a reality, starting today!
