You inspired me to take a closer look into carbon footprints and off-sets, particularly in light of this year's Burning Man theme of the 'Green Man'. 27,000 tons in 2006 generated from the event. Wow. One of the Burning Man projects is CoolingMan.com, that encourages reductions in carbon footprinting by participants, as well as (apparently) well researched off-sets. They also provide a calculator for burner's to determine what their impact is. I was pleased that my partner and I combined will have only a 1/10th of the estimated impact of the typical burner - as we'll be getting there in our biodiesel burning Jeep pulling our solar powered small RV. It's good to know that our decisions to reduce petroleum dependence and use renewable energy sources also benefits the earth in other ways :) Keep up the tremendous work guys.. and Zamis? Keep those two in line. ~Cherie~ Very well done, guys!
