Feel Guilty About Global Warming? Not While You’re Flying
Travelocity and Expedia recently released services allowing travelers to make a tax-deductible donation to The Conservation Fund, a nonprofit organization that plants trees.
The oxygen released by the trees offsets the fuel emissions given off as a result of your flight and rental car use. For example, a ten-dollar donation can make a two-day trip “carbon zero“. This service is just starting, but is expected to take off very quickly.

Andrew:
Just a clarification — the Expedia program channels purchases through TerraPass to American clean energy projects, like wind farms and innovative “cow-power” plants. These help establish a clean energy infrastructure for tomorrow.
