Slow Global Warming While You Save $$ on Your Next Trip through Green Pleasures. TRAVEL SNOB TRAVEL BLOG

A lot of people talk about reducing global warming, but one enterprising scientist is actually doing something about it.

Eric Woodroof, Ph.D, has created Green Pleasures, a program that allows travelers to not only save thousands of dollars on exotic trips, but offset the  the average emissions they generate by driving, traveling and just everyday living through carbon emission credits. For, say, a week-long vacation, Green Pleasures will purchase 4,400 lbs of carbon credits (equivalent to planting nearly one acre of trees) which more than offsets the carbon emissions impact of the entire trip. "This is a new vacation concept," explains Woodroof. "Our clients love it because, while on vacation they are helping to slow global warming." To date, the program has helped a variety of organizations save millions in cost-reduction programs.
