It'll end up costing us less than 14 cents a day and will ease my mind about emissions from our car. Considering that it just cost me $50 to fill up, I don't think 14 cents a day is outrageous. Can't wait for the car decal!

The funds thus acquired are invested in renewable energy projects that reduce carbon dioxide emissions. This effectively nullifies your car's CO2 contribution by reducing output from other sources. <a title="Ford Website" href="http://www.ford.com/" target="_blank">Ford</a> has teamed up with <a title="TerraPass Website" href="http://www.terrapass.com/" target="_blank">TerraPass</a> to <a title="Ford Page on TerraPass Site" href="http://www.terrapass.com/ford/" target="_blank">market this idea to Ford vehicle owners</a>. Apparently, Ford derives no revenue from the program.</p> Thu, 22 Jun 2006 18:36:32 -0600
