Green Energy Resources

I’ve mentioned this nifty carbon mitigation tool called the Terrapass before, but I only recently did these similar/supplementary products come to my attention:

Certified Clean Car is a program pretty similar to the Terrapass program, with the added benefit that a graduate from my academic program works there.

PV USA Solar allows you to calculate the amount of CO2 produced by your home, your business, your commute, or your travel, and then purchase renewable energy certificates to offset those emissions. PV USA Solar is run by Renewable Ventures LLC, the same folks that are in charge of Certified Clean Car, listed above.

Green-e certifies energy-related products across America, and provides information on local sources of electricity from renewable sources, as well as providers of the renewable energy certificates mentioned above.

There are several other programs that work like terapass. Drivinggreen.com, which I'm actually subscribed to, is a good one. Joel Makower has a post about several of them.

Also, you can do the same thing for your house, if you live in NC, with ncgreenpower.org. North Carolina is the first state to get all of its utility companies to come together to help green power producers. You can make your donation directly through your power company.

Great to hear.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll probably be linking to this, Chris.

Terribly sorry, HH. The link should be fixed now!
