There is this awesome project going on in Germany. It’s called “Make It Green”. Their goal is to raise awareness of the environmental damage caused by carbon emissions. They are raising awareness of the carbon emissions caused by blogs!

A blog with 15,000 visits per month has a carbon dioxide emission of 8lb per year.

They have created these “My Blog is Carbon Neutral” buttons so that bloggers can show that we care about the environment and the carbon footprint from our blogs. This will help lower the carbon emissions.

By writing this post, and placing the button on my blog, the Make It Green project is going to plant a tree on my behalf. Which will lower my carbon footprint! How awesome is that! I’m so excited about that! For more info, click on the green leaf.
