Offset Your Carbon Footprint the Next Time You Travel.
Wednesday, March 10th, 2010This March, I am one of the lucky ones who is taking a tropical vacation to escape snowy Minnesota. I’ll be staying in Nassau (Bahamas) all week! Sun, surf and hot tubs here I come!

Since this isn’t the greenest way to travel, I wanted to do something that would offset the emissions I will be contributing to.
