Can you save the environment with reusable water bottles, carbon offsets, and public transportation?
All of it helps, but now there’s an even easier way to reduce your impact: Search Green Travel.
Just by searching for travel, you can give back to the environment.
Search for Plane Tickets, Hotels, Rental Cars Using Search Green Travel
Search Green Travel is a new travel tool, created by yours truly (Kimberly and Elizabeth), to help you plan your eco-friendly, cost-effective travels. With Search Green Travel, you can find cheap plane tickets, deals on hotel rooms, and reasonably priced rental cars.
We use the best travel search engine on the web to help you find lowest price on the web. The search engine collects prices from hundreds of sites, so you know you’re getting the best deal. Search Green Travel is still in beta testing, so please send us your feedback.
Profits Donated to Environmental Non-Profits
Every time you search, we get a small share of advertising revenue for referring you. Then we donate 50% of our profits to environmental charities, particularly those that focus on preservation and sustainability world-wide.
You can see the non-profits we’ve chosen on the FAQ page. If your favorite small to mid-sized environmental non-profit isn’t on the list, let us know and we’ll check it out.
You Don’t Have to Buy — Just Search
Using Search Green Travel is an easy way to give back to the environment, and all you have to do is search. It’s unique in that you don’t have to buy a product in order for us to donate to charity.
You search. We donate. It’s that simple. The bonus is that you also find the best travel deals on the web.
The Easiest Way to Travel Green is to Search Green Travel
Now, you can be green from the start of your trip planning.
Alone, we can’t stop melting glaciers, receding coastlines, or disappearing forests. But together, we can do a little bit more to make sure your favorite destinations are still there when you go back.
Our goal with Search Green Travel is to work with eco-conscious travelers like you to give back — one cheap airfare search at a time.
Check It Out and Spread the Word
Please bookmark http://gogreentravelgreen.com/searchgreentravel (or http://searchgreentravel.com) and use it every time you’re looking for cheap flights, airfare, or rental cars. Then tell your eco-conscious traveler friends and family about it, and share it on Digg, StumbleUpon, del.icio.us, or your favorite social bookmarking site.
What Do You Think?
We’ve been developing this tool for some time, and we’re excited to finally launch it. It’s still in beta testing, so we welcome any feedback.
What do you think? Is it something you’ll use? How can we make it better?

I really like the idea personally. As you have said, you don’t have to buy necessarily, but certainly search with it.
Thanks for the posting.
That’s really a good idea and the revenue shared is for a good cause
