If you your website is hosted with Dreamhost you can now rest easy knowing that the electricity your site uses is now <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_offset" title="Wiki Carbon Offset">carbon neutral</a>.</p>
<blockquote><p> We?ve purchased Renewable Energy Credits (RECs) certified by Green-e. RECs don?t offset electricity-related emissions, but combined with the purchase of regular electricity they do help us to avoid them.</p></blockquote>
<h3>Dreamhost for non-profits</h3>
<p>Dreamhost provides <a href="http://wiki.dreamhost.com/index.php/Non-profit_Discount">free hosting to non-profits</a>.<br />
I&#8217;m really starting to love this company!</p>
