LiveNeutral is a
grassroots, nonprofit organization that enables people like you to act

Management, LiveNeutral is now an independent 501 (c)(3) non-profit
organization.
When you join LiveNeutral, you join a collaborative, nationwide effort.
Here’s what makes us unique:
Education: LiveNeutral is one of the only organizations in it’s
industry focusing on outreach and education in addition to providing
offset services. We teach you everything you need to know about climate
change and we show you ways to reduce your own carbon footprint.
Collaboration: Through its membership in the Chicago Climate
Exchange, LiveNeutral allows you to collaborate with large corporations,
educational institutions, and municipalities to stop global warming. In
other words, you offset your own carbon emissions by stimulating
companies to reduce theirs.
Action: Global warming is happening now. So, it follows that
stopping global warming means acting now. Maybe you’ve done all you can
to reduce your own emissions. When you offset the remainder through
LiveNeutral, you’re also sending a message that climate change and
renewable energy matter to you. |
