British supermodel launches eco-friendly car insurance

If you follow the automotive and fashion model worlds, one name that you'll find in both arenas is Laura Bailey. A few years back she was the "face" of the Jaguar X. Her latest auto adventure is something a little better for the environment.

To mark today as World Environment Day, Bailey is helping to launch ibuyeco, a green car insurance program in the UK. The concept is to have people pay a little extra on their insurance premiums to offset the carbon they emit while they have the policy. Ibuyeco says their policies are "competitively priced" and the small offset charge is based on what kind of vehicle they drive and how many miles they put on a year. The CarbonNeutral Company is the offset provider.
