Reduce What You Can, Offset What You Can’t.™
That’s our motto, and we’re proud of it. Everyone has a responsibility to reduce their individual carbon footprint, and there are lots of ways to do so. We encourage everyone to think about their lifestyle decisions and find opportunities to reduce their climate impact.
You can get partway to carbon neutrality through how you live your life, i.e., reducing your carbon footprint, and get the rest of the way there by supporting Carbonfund.org’s carbon offset project.
Here are some good ways to start.
Did you know that the energy used to produce, deliver and dispose of junk mail produces more greenhouse gas emissions than 2.8 million cars? You can dramatically reduce your junk mail through the service of our nonprofit partner 41pounds, which will contact dozens of direct mail companies to remove your name from lists, including catalogs you specify. The cost is $41 for everyone in your household for five years, and 41pounds will donate $15 to Carbonfund.org to help support our mission.
When your electronics are “off” they may still be using power while plugged in or on standby. About 5-10 percent of electricity can be drained by “vampire” energy loss in the home each year. Be sure to unplug electronics and appliances you’re not using for awhile or try EcoStrip. It acts as a normal power strip/surge protector for your computer and peripheral devices, but when the computer is turned off, power is shut down to peripherals. EcoStrip will donate $10.95 to Carbonfund.org for each order with the coupon code carbonfund and you receive an extra 30% discount.
