I just wanted to introduce you to a new project of Carbonfund.org's: Live Climate. Live Climate is an organization that fights poverty through the use of carbon financing. Their projects not only reduce emissions, but also bring electricity to remote communities or provide work to otherwise under-employed people. There are clear areas of convergence where fighting global warming will certainly help improve the quality of life of the poor. Many types of renewable energy, for example, can be implemented in remote locations that wouldn’t otherwise have power. And a fundamental principle of fighting global warming – improved energy efficiency – should help allow everyone to do more with less. Please contact me for more info!
