Carbon Balancing

Despite the intense effort by the oil industry and many in political power, there is a growing recognition that global warming is undeniable and is the result of human greenhouse gas emissions.

While we may not be able to halt our energy consumption, there are things that we can do to reduce our carbon footprint. As a first step, check and see if wind or solar power plans are available in your area. When planning a short trip, think first about public transportation. And when you must travel long distances, consider paying for carbon credits to offset the greenhouse emissions generated in getting you from place to place.

Reducing our overall energy consumption also reduces greenhouse gas emissions. This can be done by purchasing compact cars, or ideally hybrid vehicles, as well as furnishing your home with energy efficient appliances and insulation.
