Eco-Travel...

Earth Moment is another simple, free change you can make to your everyday routine--in this case, shopping online--to help the planet. The site is a portal leading to established online retailers (including green stores), which pay commissions to Earth Moment for every purchase you make. Half the commission is then invested back into the planet (into renewable energy, energy efficiency, and reforestation projects) via Carbonfund.org.

The most exciting wedding-related category is Travel & Hotels, which links to Hotels.com, Hotwire, Enterprise Rent-a-Car, Budget Rent-a-Car, Spa Finder, and my personal favorite resource for budget airfare, Kayak.com, among others.

Why not mention the site in your wedding invite or link to it on your wedding website, for the guests who have to travel to your wedding? And when it's all over, if you must fly to your honeymoon and you can't afford to offset the whole thing, using Earth Moment at least is a baby step. But there's no reason to go jetting around Europe; another of the portal's affiliates is Railpass.com. Even buying the Zagat restaurant guide for your honeymoon destination through Earth Moment will generate a wee bit of carbon offset.

The oddest option on there is a private jet service, which if you book it through Earth Moment, yeilds a donation of $150.

Earth Moment was started by Ogden Publications, who put out Utne Reader, Mother Earth News, and Natural Home magazines.
