Some Greenscroll Criticism, Toronto Hydro Supports Green Energy, Beware Carbon Phishing 0

It's been a busy couple of days here at Greenscroll, first chance I've had to   blog about it. There's a lot of green news flying around and it's a full-time   role just trying to keep track. It should be stressed again that Greenscroll is   run entirely by non-paid volunteers, in our spare time, so forgive us if we're   not "on" 24/7. We do read every e-mail, comment and tweet though, so rest   assured we know what's going on out there!

The first of -- we hope! -- a lot of page views that are going to be "greenscrolled" once that money is converted into some carbon offsets and Renewable Energy Certificates.
