The Carbon Advice Group has launched what they say is the the world’s first multi-level affiliate carbon offset network today at CarbonAdviceGroup.com. It was only last week when I still didn’t really understand carbon trading so this is a very new opportunity. If you’re into green living and looking for a network marketing company this may be right up your alley. Full press release after the jump.
CARBON ADVICE GROUP LAUNCHES THE WORLD’S FIRST CARBON OFFSET NETWORK FOR SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURS.
UK-based company expands into the United States, creating a multi-level network for social entrepreneurs to promote and sell carbon offsets.
SAN FRANCISCO, CA — The Carbon Advice Group launches the world’s first multi-level affiliate carbon offset network today at CarbonAdviceGroup.com. London-based Carbon Advice Group PLC has created a unique web-based service that enables individuals and businesses to take an active role in combating climate change. The site enables users to directly calculate their carbon footprint and immediately purchase offsets.
The Carbon Advice Group allows anyone to get involved and take an active role in the emerging green economy. The site also offers motivated social entrepreneurs a short process to set up their own merchant site to promote and sell carbon offsets as part of the Carbon Advice Group’s network.
“We want to motivate the average person in the street to get online, build their own site and get the message across to everyone they know,” says serial Social Entrepreneur and Carbon Advice Group founder Matthew Sullivan.
The Carbon Advice Group’s mission is to create a worldwide network of social entrepreneurs by giving them the necessary tools, understanding and motivation for them to bring carbon emission reduction and offsetting into the mainstream and make it a vital part of everyday life. Allowing individuals to promote, purchase or provide carbon offsets, the group offers a compelling answer to the “What can I do?” response to global climate change issues.
Carbon offsetting enables individuals and businesses to compensate for unavoidable emissions by purchasing equivalent greenhouse gas savings. With the Carbon Advice Group, these savings can come from wind power, biomass power, or a renewable energy charitable contribution.
Available carbon credits meet international standards. Users who purchase carbon offsets will receive certificates and luggage tags to display in vehicles, businesses or on vacation.
“Everyday we see, hear and read about the catastrophic effects of global climate change. We all know we need to do something, and we need to do it now. We believe we have solved the “What’s in it for me” problem,” says Sullivan.
