Why not just make a concerted effort to lower you output on your own? Buy some of the cool stuff they sell, like the power strip and the solar phone/ipod/etc charger and the like?
I agree, but I like the concept of retracting all of my emissions versus slowing them. It is being sold in my mind as more effective and stronger direct impact.
The site does not let you put in alternative modes of transportation or fun like motorcycles or boats.
As far as tax deductability, their website says that businesses can but individuals cannot. There are some other carbon offset companies that claim that they are classified as charitable organizations and you can claim the deduction.
ATTN: Energy Engineers and Specialists - - What are your thoughts on this social group? I'm curious to hear your opinions of its efforts and efficiencies.
We should ask them to add motorcycles. Although I know the EPA standards of emissions are slightly different for all classes of transportation (bus, freight truck, auto, motorcycle)... I wonder if there is a huge difference in the calculation that it would make that much of a difference.
I dont know the EPA standards for motorcycles vs. cars in the US. Do you?
if anything, the bikes are probably a bit dirtier since the performance nature of the engine, especially if fitted with aftermarket exhausts that remove the catalyst.
however, since the engine displacement is so much smaller, maybe the output is the same or equal of bad stuff compared to most cars.
they def use less fuel than the average car, and are getting close to the mileage of most hybrids
In another lifetime while traversing the continental United States, I saw numerous wind farms and was thinking "what if I pulled a NickIF or tranny and started my own farm?!"
I need to get rockin on my business plans of my own. EVERYONE is claiming my name on their business these days!! lol
