Online Video Site Spreads the Green Word

by 07/21/08 No Comments

Want to watch a video comparing the fuel economy of a Prius and a Smart Car? Arnold Schwarzenegger answering questions about his climate policies? How about a children’s video illustrating the importance of recycling?

Launched last month, GoGreenTube allows citizens to view and share videos about the environment, green technologies, news and products. The goal of the site is to spread environmental knowledge.

The site also collaborates with Carbonfund.org’s Carbon Free Program. GoGreenTube offsets one pound of carbon dioxide for every video watched. Viewers can also sign up to receive community carbon credits for videos viewed.

Similiar to YouTube, registration for GoGreenTube is free and anyone may upload videos to share.
