Offspring Goes Carbon Neutral
Neill Corporation is facing the future and taking a stand against global warming. We have calculated the amount of carbon being emitted for hosting Offspring Miami 2007, including the energy used at the venue during the event and preparing for the event. This value is being offset, or balanced, through our own Building Bridges program in Hainan, China where we are supporting rural mountain villagers to switch to locally sourced, renewable energy systems. These systems are reducing pollution that leads to global warming by preventing emissions and creating clean and safe alternatives for our supply chain partners.
This is only a start, Neill Corporation is committed to creating a path to becoming more carbon conscious and having a positive impact, for ourselves and for all of our supply chain partners. This year, each conference participant will be given the opportunity to calculate their own personal carbon footprint for attending the conference and offset it with Native Energy. |
