As part of the partnership, JustGreen Lifestyle will donate 5 percent of every carbon offset membership purchased to NPCA's Clean Air and Climate program. Together they will help NPCA's efforts to reduce air and climate pollution affecting America's national parks.
JustGreen Lifestyle will also help NPCA go "carbon neutral" by providing carbon credits to offset greenhouse gases associated with operation of NPCA's Washington, D.C. headquarters.
"We are proud to partner with such a prominent environmental advocate as the National Parks Conservation Association," said JustGreen Executive Vice President Gerardo Manalac. "We look forward to contributing needed funds that will support the efforts of raising awareness of the importance of our national parks, preserving wildlife habitats and doing our part to help stop global warming."
Support raised through this partnership will help fund the important park protection work that NPCA does across the country including its advocacy for measures that safeguard national parks from the impacts of climate change.
"Climate change is among the gravest challenges to the health of our national parks," said NPCA Vice President of Air & Climate Mark Wenzler. "It will take everyone doing their part to begin to slow the rate of climate change, and carbon offsets can be an important part of the solution."
