    I am flying to Arizona next week and committed to offsetting my travel.  I actually chose to offset they annual emissions of a typical individual in the US which according to Terrapass is 36000 pounds of CO2e.   It cost a total of $179 in case anyone is wondering.  I still want to work on lowering emissions though, not just offsetting.
