I found a fascinating program that allows you to offset the effect of your car's carbon dioxide emissions by purchasing something called a TerraPass. 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. Ford has teamed up with TerraPass to market this idea to Ford vehicle owners. Apparently, Ford derives no revenue from the program.
