Stressdesign is proud to be one of the first 50 AIGA CarbonCool partners. Our office has offset our carbon footprint to near zero through reforestation efforts in Central America. AIGA partnered with Carbonfund.org for its Save the Forest project, which strives to reforest an area in Nicaragua larger than Central Park and will sequester 150,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions. The offsets are calculations based on reasonable profiles of activity levels, using systematic analytic tools. See more information on the CarbonCool program page at AIGA.org and on the Carbonfund website.
Use the Offset Calculator to estimate credits needed and your carbon footprint for your home or business.

We had an idea a while ago. How can we get more fans on our Facebook page? How can we leverage the power of the people that already know and love us to reach new audiences who will — undoubtedly — love us? We could just ask our existing fans to tell their friends about us, and fan our Facebook page, and track what we’re doing but that seemed dull. Why not make it a contest… why not make it a contest with really cool prizes like iPod and stressdesign stuff? That’s what we did. Authorize the Facebook application to get started now!
