No carbon fun!
It’s only carbon neutral (but I like it)
The joy of RECs
Let’s talk about RECs, baby
Start having some no carbon fun!
As you already know, burning fossil fuels such as oil and coal releases greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide. These gases blanket Earth and trap heat in the atmosphere, which disrupts our climate. And that’s a bad thing.
Many activities we take for granted release greenhouse gasses into the air. Some of the biggest offences are travelling by plane, heating our homes, and driving automobiles. For most of us, these things are inescapable.
Although the best thing to do for the environment is to simply reduce greenhouse gas emissions instead of offsetting them, going carbon neutral is a step in the right direction. Luckily, there are several programs to help us go carbon neutral. And that's why they're worth supporting.
Heck, even the Rolling Stones have gone carbon neutral. And if it’s good enough for Mick and Keith, it’s good enough for us too.
