Buying Your Carbon-Neutral Footprint

This site for the Pop!Tech Carbon Initiative lets you calculate how many tons of carbon you pump into the atmosphere, then gives you the opportunity to contribute to groups that are doing something green. The amount you should give depends on how much carbon you contribute.

How accurate these calculators are. Isn't there a built-in incentive for the people who make these calculators to make my footprint as big as they can?

Sure would like to see China's footprint. Mine is so small that someone should contribute to me.

I started reducing my footprint after seeing Al Gore's movie, "An inconvenient Truth". I thought it was going to be expensive and a big pain to do it. It wasn't.I replaced all the incandescent bulbs with energy savers I bought at Aldis. I recycle paper, plastic and aluminum and take the recycleables to collection points next to my work.It's ridiculously easy and cheap. Truth713
