The wonder of the Web: a couple of sites to look at.
If you're as bemused as we are by the carbon offset market, this might help: Sustainable Travel have done a survey of some of the companies offering to turn your air travel green, and it is at the very least a good way of weeding out some of the more dubious ones. Have a look at: http://www.sustainabletravelinternational.org/documents/06_STI_Choosing_a_Greenhouse_Gas_Offset_Program.pdf - and wait a while for our next issue and we'll sound off about the whole darn thing at a bit more length.

This benchmarking tool site is a creation of a collection of eco-business organisations. If you're in the business, we hope it makes sense to you: we also hope they make some more of it in the years to come. Worth watching. We'll let you know when we know more...
