Organic Gardener Gifts

Here is an easy guide to help you find gifts for the "Organic Gardeners" on your gift list!

Being a "Organic Gardener" myself these are items I either own or would like to own - hint hint!!

   Earth Carbon Offsets, 1 Ton

Carbon offsets are well established as an effective way to fight global warming, recognized by the United Nations and the World Bank. But we're excited about a new kind of carbon offset that's based on preventing the destruction of forests. These carbon credits from Earth Carbon Offsets; help the earth many times over.

It's a meaningful purchase for yourself and a thoughtful gift for loved ones. Here's why: The burning, clear-cutting and degrading of the world's forests releases huge amounts of carbon. The amount is estimated at 20-25% of all carbon emissions, more than all the cars and trucks in the world combined!

 Every acre of forestland that we can protect lightens the carbon load on our atmosphere. We must also heal the earth's diminished ability to reabsorb carbon from the atmosphere &; and forests, especially tropical forests, are excellent carbon sponges. By protecting forestland, Earth Carbon Offsets also prevent catastrophic erosion, improve soil, provide habitat for thousands of species, and build sustainable local economies. 

These carbon credits support one of the world's premier sustainable forestry program in northern Honduras Sold in 1-ton increments A personalized certificate.
