Harrah's Entertainment and NativeEnergy Make the World Series of Poker(R) the First Climate Friendly Poker Tournament
From this post:
The purchase of carbon offsets at the WSOP will support NativeEnergy's farmer-owned distributed wind program. With financial assistance from NativeEnergy, new wind turbines on farms throughout the Midwest will help farmers reduce their global warming impact from energy use and reduce their long-term electricity costs, while helping to stabilize the electricity grid with distributed, small scale, renewable power generation.If farmer Williamson actually believes in AGW, why is he raising beef cattle?
The Williamson family farm turbine is an example of the type of project that the WSOP carbon offsets will help support. Located just south of Jasper, Minnesota, the Williamson farm raises beef cattle and crops on more than 2,000 acres. Its 35 kilowatt wind turbine began generating renewable energy in the spring of 2007. "We're very grateful for the support of companies like Harrah's and participants in the World Series of Poker who, working with NativeEnergy, help family farms across the country diversify our energy supply and fight global warming," said Wayne Williamson.
