DreamHost

I've always been very pleased with DreamHost's web hosting and now just recently I've learned they went carbon neutral. It took them three days to go from “Hey let’s do this” to “Hey it’s done!” (and several thousand dollars ;)

With all their servers, two offices, and employee computers, they calculated their carbon footprint at 30,600 acres and generate 2,725 tons of CO2 per year. To help offset, they did little things like switching to coffee cups made from fully renewable resources, to deploying power-efficient AMD processors. They also are purchasing yearly carbon credits to make up for the rest.
