Ford’s plan to offset carbon emissions gives owners a chance to ease their guilt about their own global warming contributions.
Ford has teamed up with an eco-investment group to provide car buyers with a way to offset their CO2 emissions. When people purchase a Terrapass their money is pooled with more than 10,000 other customers and invested in renewable energy sources like wind and methane. Host Steve Curwood speaks with Terrapass’s inventor Karl Ulrich of the Wharton School.
