| DNC carbon offset program raises less that $20 to save the Earth |
| 2008-09-15 |
| Results of a program using AspenÂ’s Canary Initiative to sell carbon offset credits to Democratic National Convention attendees are a little underwhelming. The program, set up by the DNC Host Committee through the Denver Convention and Visitors Bureau and rolled out about a week before the convention started, raised a total of $18.34 worth of Canary Tags, offsetting 0.9 tons of carbon emissions. |

Also from REDDIT, EARLY DINOSAURIA FOUGHT WID CRUSTORANS for comination of early Earth, i.e. ANCIENT GODZILLA FOUGHT CROC-ZILLAS + PROB GECKO/GEICO-ZILLAS FOR CONTROL OF THE SITE OF FUTURE TOKYO!? |

| #3 How about a carbon offset gumball machine? Maybe you could get, say, $0.10 worth of gum and $0.15 worth of offsets for a quarter. Or perhaps the dreaded crane. |

| #2 True to a Democratic party standard - do as I say, not as I do. Crafted and launched by Al Gore. The DNC also set down rules for the convention's caterers, that they had to use local foods(including loco weed, also?) and have 2 or 3 healthful colors. Anyone know how that turned out? |
