    The National Football League has decided to work towards the greener good and has rolled out plans to offset its energy expenditures this year. Adding it all up, this could easily sum up to a good 15,000 megawatt hours and the League will set of on its offsets with renewable energy certificates by Just Energy. The energy offsets could help power 1,500 homes for a whole year! The 2011 Super Bowl is being billed as the greenest NFL championship on record too with all direct and indirect carbon emissions associated with power generation at major Super Bowl XLV venues being offset with RECs or renewable energy certificates.


    This indeed is a lovely step taken up by the NFL and the league sure seems to be hell bent on turning greener by the day.
