Nature Air: first carbon neutral airline in the world

The domestic Costa Rican carrier Nature Air was declared the first carbon neutral airline in the world. Since 2004, Nature Air has developed an aggressive conservation program at the Osa Peninsula –world-renowned for its natural resources– oriented at compensating the whole gas emissions of its entire fleet. This effort was acknowledged at the World Environment Conference held in Oslo, Norway, in May. Environmentalists hail Nature Air as an example to follow if we are to preserve the planet for coming generations.

Interesting idea. I hope this catches on with the general airline industry.
