TerraPass is the brainchild of Dr. Karl Ulrich at the
University of Pennsylvania. Along with 41 of his
students, Karl launched TerraPass in October, 2004 as a
way to help everyday people reduce the climate impact of
their driving. Within its first year, TerraPass
registered over 2,400 members, reduced 36 million pounds
of CO2, and earned countless national press and blog
articles.
NorAm purchases CO2 offsets equivalent to 10 semi trucks driving
every day each year. This is approximately 8 times the
amount actually used by NorAm for inbound and outbound
deliveries.
