TOPICS DISCUSSED ON THIS SITE Alternative Energy, Carbon Offsets, Climate Change, Conservation, Carbon Calculator, things you can do, Reforestation, and Environmental Education. The earth is constantly changing. Global Warming has become a hot topic around the world. Carbonblueprints.org was set up to educate people how they can make a change and how what is the truth about these topics.

WHERE CAN WE DO OUR PART: As stated in our title, "Teach a man to Fish," we believe in equipping our customers with the tools they need. KNOWLEDGE is the greatest tool we can give to our supports, sponsors, and partners. We want everyone who donates to our company and any company out there to know what they are donated to and know the background for what cause they are donating for. We believe in a process that we have set up that can fix most of the problems in the world.

• FIRST, we learn about what we are getting into. Learn about these problems.
• SECOND, we do what we can ourselves before we pay others to fix the problem.
• THIRD, we figure out where our money would be best suited and not wasted.
• FOURTH and FINALLY, we donate to organizations that help get rid of the problem.

HOW CAN THIS PROCESS SOLVE THIS PROBLEM: To many organizations just search for money or tell you to donate to their cause but never equip you with the tools and understanding that you need to know to help solve this problem. This is how deeply we desire to change the world. "Lets change ourselves and then change the world." "The only way to make a change is by starting from within." Before you try to fight a large fire, shouldn't you first be equipped with the fire fighting education and equipment you need.

Do you know what global warming is? Do you know what the difference is between Global Warming and Climate Change is? Do you understand how Solar Cycles effect these natural/unnatural effects on the world? Do you know what some of these organizations projects are doing, where your money is going, etc? Do you understand Reforestation and how this is not the most effective way to fight back in your area? Do you know how these organizations are fighting for energy efficiency? Do you know how they are fighting to expand renewable resources? Do you know how these companies are spending your money? This is how our process fixes this problem in the world, and helps you know exactly what is happening with your money?

1. We need to be taught what global warming, climate change, and solar cycles are and where we fit in. We need to know how we add to the green house effect and how we add to the polluting of the environment. (From there we build a desire to change.)
2. From that desire, we need to learn what we can do to conserve our resources, not just by throwing money at it, but saving money from it by saving around our homes, businesses, and joining organizations that conserve..
3. We then can learn about what offsets are and how we can use them to pay for the resources we can conserve?
4. We need to then look at how much money we save from conserving around our homes and on the road? Calculate it, save it, donate some of it, and pay off debt with the rest of it.
5. We need to figure out what project we would like to donate to in order to effect our area and help those we affect. (We don't have to pay for projects halfway around the world. Instead we can donate to projects in our backyards.)
6. We can then donate this money to that project that we choose, so we can help offset the CO2 and other gases we emit into our atmosphere.
7. Then CarbonBlueprint.org will report to you where your money is going and how effective it has been from our newsletters.
