Dear Colleagues,
We all travel - often on jet airplanes. Here is a way to offset the C emitted by our airplane trips. I recently purchased these offsets for our family vacation to Mexico. It cost $9 per person (Minneapolis to Cancun). Perhaps we should make it a department objective to buy C offsets whenever we fly. Here is the website, and the description of where the money goes - FYI.

Happy New Year!
