Nature Air

Here’s a video about Nature Air, a Costa Rica based airline that claims to be the first carbon neutral airline in the world. Founded in 2000 from Travelair, in 2004 they started their carbon neutral program to offset their total carbon emissions by donating money to a rainforest preservation program. Watch as they fly a Cessna Grand Caravan from Pavas, San Jose to Quepos, to Palma Sur and back to Pavas on flight 130.
