The ReGeneration website at http://www.regeneration.org is an online experience that enables people to learn, share, and protect the environment together.
Sign up for the ReGeneration movement while you’re at it. There's a cool new section on the site called Café Re which encourages dialogue and self-expression. You can chat with others participating in the contest and view the latest art being submitted by Graffiti users across the globe. The ReGeneration includes fun projects and competitions that allow people to participate in caring for the environment and at the same time connect to other people. Dell’s other green projects include: Plant a Tree – a program that partners with Conservation Fund and Carbonfund.org in providing customers the opportunity to plant trees to offset the CO2 emissions related to the use of their computer systems. One hundred percent of donations received by Dell go to tree planting efforts.
Plant a Forest for Me – a program that enables organizations worldwide to facilitate the planting of trees in sustainably-managed reforestation projects. For this project, Dell has partnered with AMD, ABN, AMRO, Ask.com, CGI, Staples, Salaesforce.com, Targus and WellPoint.
Reconnect – a computer recycling program in partnership with Goodwill Industries for consumers who want to responsibly recycle any brand of unwanted computer equipment by dropping off their equipment in any Goodwill donation centers in their area.
