Green Hosting renewable energy on the internet
Canada's first internet hosting service powered 100% by green energy.
They generate electricity through wind power, which is then fed back into the grid. So while it's not directly powering theit servers / data centre, in my opinion it is better that purchasing carbon credits after the fact.

I have no experience with them, but from their website:
"Our web hosting company is 100% powered by green power
Acorn Host purchases Green Certificates monthly for the amount of energy that is used to run the servers, office equipment, lights, etc. Renewable Energy Certificates (also known as Green Tags or Green Certificates) are a simple way to effectively power a business (or your home) on 100% renewable energy resources, without changing electricity providers. The idea is to pay for green energy to be put into the power grid equal to the amount of energy you use."

As an eco-conscious consumer, you can sleep well knowing that your online presence is contributing to the prevention of thousands of pounds of carbon dioxide emissions. The purchase of your GoGreen Hosting will be equivalent to planting several acres of trees or removing several cars from the road for one year."

http://www.thedailygreen.com –
Sitting in a Connecticut warehouse, the very first Poulsen Hybrid looks like a standard Honda Civic with immobilizer boots attached to its rear wheels. It is, one would have to say, not the most visually elegant of solutions to the pressing problem of using electric power to extend the range of the internal-combustion automobile.
