About Me
- Name: David and Phoebe
This is a blog of 'what if' ideas, a collection of random thoughts that come to us at random times in random places. We're a young creative team working in london who just like coming up with ideas. Not just advertising ideas but ideas for the real world too. And we have fun having them, so we thought this would be the perfect place to keep them. Feel free to comment. We'd love that. Together we could come up with a great idea. Don't take it too seriously though. We don't.

Icelandair already does this. I couldn't´t find anything about it in English, but at http://www.icelandair.is/heim/kaupa/kolvidur/ you can see a table over destinations from Iceland and the number of trees (fjöldi trjáa) that will be planted for the extra fee.
You can buy this for your car as well....
Like your ideas btw.

you can offset your carbon footprint at the airport while waiting for a plane in heathrow. there's a little counter there.
you have got a bunch of really good ideas, though!
:)
They do it in Australia too. (Makes sense seeing as though we cop the effects of the ozone layer hole). You can pay to off set the amout of carbon your flight produces. The money goes into making renewable sourses economically viable.
where do they put the trees?
BA does do this.

"British Airways were the first airline to introduce a voluntary passenger carbon offsetting scheme and we have also taken part in the recent UK government’s consultation to develop a Code of Practice for carbon offsetting." It has to be a voluntary thing so it can't be made compulsory.
If you read on their site there are lots of other ways to help and that they are already doing.
You guys given up on posting ideas then?
