Driving is what many people have to do to get around, and some have a passion for it! So how do you take care of the planet while getting around? Carbonfund.org, a nonprofit organization, lets you reduce your impact on climate change from auto emissions by supporting carbon emissions reduction projects in the US and abroad. An innovative truck stop electrification project, for example, lets long-haul truck drivers connect to electricity to heat and operate their cabs rather than burn fuel and emit exhaust. When you support these projects, which are third-party verified to reduce emissions, you are balancing out your own emissions. You can calculate and offset your auto and aspects of your carbon footprint at www.carbonfund.org/calculators. The organization also offers business programs for small and large businesses to reduce their climate impact and has a product certification program, featuring the CarbonFreeĀ® Certified label, the nationās first carbon neutral product label.
