BETHESDA, Md., Feb 17, 2009 ... In a bold move to help improve the climate, Marriott International, Inc.  is launching a new way for guests to "green" their hotel stays. Now, when you book a room on www.Marriott.com or visit http://www.marriott.com/green-brazilian-rainforest.mi, you can offset the carbon generated during your stay for as little as US$10, or US$1/day for 10 days.

Is there a money-back guarantee if you pay the fee, then notice no improvement in the global climate?
