Two New Champions in February: Redwoods Group and Joanie

Posted by administrator at March 9th, 2008, in


Please join us in congratulating our leading Rallyers for February!


After just two months in the Rally, The Redwoods Group has climbed to the top of the Leaderboard for February, beating out over 100 teams to reduce the most CO2 for the month. This award also marks a significant milestone for Carbonrally, as the Redwoods Group is the first company team to secure the top position. The Redwoods Group is an innovative insurance firm based in Durham, NC. They have won numerous awards for social responsibility and sustainability, and we are honored to have them participating in our community. Their efforts in Carbonrally are part of a broader initiative in their company called Serve Earth. Our admiration goes out to their team of 44 Rallyers, and to their leader Kathryn. Together, they eliminated 1.85 TONS of CO2 in February, and 3.7 tons since they joined. Thanks for showing us the way.


Our top individual prize goes to Joanie of the Casto Travel team. Joanie reduced her personal CO2 emissions by over 1 TON in February. Wow. She’s taken many types of challenges, but her huge impact came through changing more than 50 lightbulbs over to compact fluorescents. Each of those bulbs is responsible for reducing CO2 by 0.7 pounds every day. As you can see, the impact of these bulbs really adds-up over time.


We’ll be in touch with Joanie and Kathryn to arrange delivery of our official Carbonrally organic grocery totes.


Please note that the Leaderboard shows the top performers for the last 30-day period. So, it’s really anybody’s game this month! Check out Prizes soon for an update on categories and prizes for February’s top performers.
