I was recently looking into ways to counter my energy consumption too
and a friend of a friend told me about the Carbon Neutral website that
she uses when she travels.

www.carbonneutral.com

Basically, this company will counteract your CO2 production by planting
trees, wind farms or other renewable energy of your choosing to
directly offset your energy consumption. It does all the math for you
to determine the CO2 produced for a given flight, road trip, party or
wedding reception, your home or business, etc. You can even choose a
generic "carbon neutral citizen" option that will tell you what the
average person in your country uses in energy and then you select where
your donation goes to make you "neutral." (That's the simplest and
easiest method)

Here's a link specifically to their "shopping" section, which goes over
some of the individual (rather then business) programs and shows you
donation options.

I really loved the idea. Hmm. maybe I will write about it in my blog
today. ;-)

Best regards,
