Be careful who you give your money too.

An article from the financial times out of the UK talks about "Companies and individuals rushing to go green have been spending millions on “carbon credit” projects that yield few if any environmental benefits."

We know there are some good companies out there really trying to do good things, but be careful which ones you give money to. I don't see terrapass mentioned, so hopefully they are all right.

Re: Be careful who you give your money too.

Hi Tom:

___Terrapass has been independently verified as one of the best Carbon offset companies we could be a part of. I have read and should be able to find a study or two with a few minutes of googling.

___Good Luck

___Wayne
