Another website trying to help reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Membership is not free but the site does provide tips and information about driving smarter and ways to offset household emissions. They also have a CO2 calculator to find out how much CO2 you want to offset. It's easy and accurate.

Carolyn, thanks for posting this. I do have some questions, though ...
* They have a .org domain but appear to be a for-profit company. It makes me nervous when I see ventures like this that don't offer any info about who's really behind it.
* They offer to "undo your CO2" but don't appear to provide much detail about what you get for your money. It's a bit dangerous to give people the idea that they can just pay some money and their CO2 will be taken care of.
This is why Clean Air-Cool Planet came out with their consumer's guide to carbon offsets. I urge you to read our article before you pay anything for a "Climate Club".
