What's a carbon neutral server? ... Is there some element of the dreaded offsetting?

Be interested in details as I'm looking into my own hosting.

I must have missed alot of the 'sights' at Glasto then. (I did however think that when people were offering me ciggies that they were actually being kind and offering me ciggies! Naive or what. :roll: ) We took our van on Wed and stayed till Mon so the cost worked out to not much more than a 'normal' campsite. Didnt spend much time around the pyramid but had much more fun around the surrounding bandstands. There was some great jazz, blues, sax etc., I have to admit that, due to the pear cider tent, I don't recall as much as I should but I do recall only seeing one 'incident' inside the festival involving security. I agree that local festivals are a better idea and there are more and more of them springing up. The greenest thing to do then I suppose is, as Mr F says, to try to support and get involved with those rather than the biggies. w.
Money talks - but it dont sing and dance and it cant walk.
