Local Austin Program offering Carbon Credits

I believe this is the FIRST Austin program being offered to offset carbon emmissions.
CONGRATS TO TREEFOLKS!

The carbon calculator is pretty easy to use, and you can see how many trees you'd need to plant yearly to offset it, or how much moola you can send them to plant trees in public spaces to offset your emmissions.

Treefolks calculates your carbon emmissions and then commits to planting the appropriate # of trees to offset your impact!

Pretty cool stuff, hope can check it out- Europe has been carbon offsetting for years, looks like we're finally catching up.
