CES is working with Carbonfund.org to offset around 20,000 tons of carbon and investing in a combination of certified renewable energy, reforestation and energy efficiency projects.

The conference organizers also say they will enable attendees to obtain offsets for their airline travel via the Carbonfund's CES web site or kiosks on the show floor. The conference is reportedly spending about $100,000 on environmental offsets.
