CHARLOTTE, VT - July 13, 2007 - American Indian majority-owned NativeEnergy, a leading national marketer of renewable energy credits (RECs) and carbon offsets, has been selected to serve as a U.S. provider to offset the global Live Earth concert series that took place on July 7, 2007. Described by many as the music event of the year, if not the decade, Live Earth brought together two billion people and more than 150 of today's prime artists for 24 hours; focusing the world's attention on the global climate crisis and effective solutions already being employed by organizations like NativeEnergy. Live Earth will be a carbon neutral event - but more importantly, Live Earth has "designed out" carbon emissions and waste from its overall production before completing carbon neutrality through offset providers like NativeEnergy. Live Earth's green event guidelines become a model for future live entertainment events and bestow an eco-friendly legacy on the live event industry.

"NativeEnergy is excited to work with Live Earth as a U.S. provider," says Tom Boucher, President and CEO of NativeEnergy. "Live Earth shares our goal of establishing long term partnerships to grow renewable energy. And as a trusted leader within the renewable energy and carbon offsets industry, NativeEnergy continues to provide high quality options for all of our clients."

NativeEnergy is involved with multiple aspects of Live Earth's groundbreaking international effort and global call-to-action. In addition to serving as the U.S. provider of carbon offsets, NativeEnergy is also offsetting both the production emissions of the Live Earth Global Warming Survival Handbook and, through a partnership with Esurance, the ground travel emissions generated by the U.S. concert attendees.

NativeEnergy offers individuals and organizations a means to compensate for their global warming pollution or to effectively power their homes and businesses with renewable energy. NativeEnergy offers RECs and offsets from a variety of operating projects. Through their novel business process of bringing upfront payment to renewable projects for the estimated future carbon offsets, NativeEnergy enables its clients to help directly finance the construction of specific new wind farms and other renewable energy projects. NativeEnergy has become the trusted choice of many leading environmentally and socially responsible businesses and organizations. More information is available at www.nativeenergy.com.
