Celsias

Celsias is today launching Celsias Climate Change Projects to help solve the problem of global warming.  Helping individuals and companies to take real action against global warming, Celsias is the first online destination for people to create, fund and equip projects.  Project leaders can get instant feedback on their impact on global warming and take advantage of the wisdom of the crowd effect by collecting knowledge of the Celsias community to improve and change projects.  Users can join projects they are in support of and can also rank projects they like.  Project leaders of highly-ranking projects can solicit donations for their projects to take a stronger stand against global warming.  The site is targeted toward the LOHAS market segment, but they also encourage corporations to use Celsias to address their corporate social responsibility requirements.
