Ann Arbor, MI – June 2, 2010 – Linux Hosting company A2 Hosting (http://www.a2hosting.com) has announced that they are planting trees for each hosting package they sell during the month of June. A2 Hosting will be supporting nonprofit carbon reduction organization Carbonfund.org's Million Tree Challenge (http://www.carbonfund.org/trees). A2 Hosting has even released the 30% off coupon code "3TREES" that customers can use to reduce the price of their purchase.

The Million Tree Challenge lets organizations and individuals donate to plant trees to help reduce climate change, improve air quality and help preserve the Earth's delicate ecosystem. Each tree A2 Hosting plants is matched 2-to-1 by Carbonfund.org, for a total of 3 trees for every package sold. Carbonfund.org is currently directing all Million Tree Challenge donations to tree planting in Haiti to help reduce floods and landslides in the earthquake-ravaged country.

A2 Hosting offers FutureServe Green Hosting (http://www.a2hosting.com/services/green-hosting) with all of their hosting packages. FutureServe is A2 Hosting's initiative to protect the environment for future generations. Some of A2 Hosting's green friendly practices include employee telecommuting practices, recycling older equipment for customers with lower resource needs, using low voltage Xeon processors and using reusable office supplies.

CEO Bryan Muthig commented on A2 Hosting's commitment to minimizing its climate impact and supporting Carbonfund.org’s efforts: "We are more than happy to offset our server emissions by donating to Carbonfund.org throughout the year. We have decided to provide even further assistance to their cause by focusing on offsetting data center air conditioning emissions during our hot weather months."
