WWF China and the Olympics

I received a message from Xiaowei Su, the Project Coordinator for WWF China’s Go for Gold campaign, an initiative targeted at encouraging Olympic athletes, National Olympic committees (NOC), and individual tourists to offset the carbon emission from their Olympic air travel before the Beijing Games.

Please be sure to check out these Web sites, according to Su, if you’re interested in learning more or getting involved:

Our website is: wwfchina.org/greenolympics. This includes information on our new E-pledge for individuals to pledge to offset their air travel. This can be found here: http://wwfchina.org/greenolympics/e-pledge.shtm

And our latest press release can be found here: http://www.wwfchina.org/english/loca.php?loca=501
There is also exciting news about the first Gold Standard project in China which received approval on Jan 21st. It is a wind farm in Fujian Province. This news can be found here: http://cdm.ccchina.gov.cn/english/NewsInfo.asp?NewsId=2323

Stay tuned for an upcoming podcast episode about this program!
