Al Gore Our Inspiration

We were frankly skeptical on the subject of "carbon offsets." That's the practice of reducing or eliminating one's "carbon footprint" by paying someone else to do something that sounds environmentally friendly. Partly our thinking was informed by the fact that Al Gore promoted such things, thus leading to the presumption that it was some kind of scam. Partly our lack of enthusiasm resulted from certain disturbing historical parallels that, shall we say, didn't work out very well.

But that's all changed. What was lost now is found!

And that's not all! You can get your very own carbon offsets at Free Carbon Offsets.

Presented as a public service. Have a nice day, and really, truly, feel better about yourself!
