Many businesses offer carbon offsets to negate emissions associated with business activities or products. Carbon offsets are frequently created by projects far away from the DC area.

WCEE will host an in-depth look at a program operated by Washington Gas Energy Services (WGES) that instead uses offsets

Laura Pagliarulo, Manager of Green Products at WGES will discuss this innovative carbon offset program that matches carbon offsets to commercial and residential natural gas usage, including the environmental benefits of a local carbon offset program and the unique public/private partnership.

This is a brown bag event, so feel free to bring your own lunch. Washington Gas will offer soft drinks and cookies.
