“According to Reuters, Ford Motor Co. is set to announce a new program that will enable customers to invest in clean energy projects to offset the carbon dioxide they produce by driving. The ‘Greener Miles’ program is a partnership between Ford and California group TerraPass, an organization that has pioneered carbon offsets for individuals. … Ford customers’ contributions - ranging from $29.95 to $79.95 a year - will be invested in U.S. projects that counterbalance the carbon dioxide they produce through driving, including wind energy farms. Ford already uses carbon offsets to balance the emissions created during the manufacturing of its hybrids.” (04/28/06)
