Just like our car, flight, home and business offsets our website offsets earn profits. We achieve the offsets through planting biofuel feedstocks and each harvest we then share the profits obtained through selling the biofuel oil we produce.
Your offset will earn a credit equal to 50% of the profits GroPower earns from your trees annually. We donate 100% of the credits earned by ALL website offsets to open source development. We believe open source software is vital to the continued diversity and innovation present on the web. As these offsets are after all for websites we feel that supporting open source software is the logical thing to do.
When you support open source software you achieve several things:You create viable alternatives to proprietary software for those who do not want to or cannot afford to pay 100's of dollars for software.
You support continued innovation and open standards.
You support many of the programs and technologies you may have used to build your website.
Open source software includes such projects as :
- Apache Software Foundation
- Blender -- 3d animation

How do we choose the open source projects to support?
Each year we will accept nominations from all of our offset purchasers who have chosen to support open source software. After all nominations are in we will hold a vote Depending on how much funds are available that year we will support the winner of the vote and possibly the top 3 open source projects voted for.
