The Carbon Footpin.  Click to see a larger image.

Take the Mayor's Carbon Challenge today and get a free carbon footprint lapel pin. Join this challenge and choose from a variety of ways to reduce your carbon footprint.

After joining the challenge, print a certificate to redeem for a free Carbon "Footpin" lapel pin at one of four Eugene locations. Wear your Footpin and encourage others to make a commitment too. Your efforts will be combined with others in Eugene to create a cumulative total CO2 savings, showing what we can do as a community to mitigate climate change.

You can also calculate your carbon footprint by clicking here. This will give you an idea of where you stand in relation to the "typical" Eugene resident.

Carbon Footpins are available at Down to Earth (both locations), The Green Store and Pasta Plus. You must take the carbon challenge to get your free pin.
