“As your everyday business activities consume energy, carbon emissions are produced.  Carbon offsetting counteracts emissions by funding essential renewable energy, resource conservation projects and forestry around the world which generates reductions in greenhouse gas emissions.”

Trying to internally reduce carbon emissions can often have a negative impact on performance, or can carry a financial burden: a properly planned carbon offset programme can deliver greater returns and allow businesses to meet their targets more speedily.

Jonathan continued;

“We make it as simple as possible for businesses to put a carbon offset scheme in place – when enquiring about any leased vehicle, simply request that we build the funding into the cost of the deal.

“UK Carline also offers a carbon evaluation for existing fleets; many companies that we see are surprised by how much money they can save on operational costs by analysing fuel usage, telematics, driver training maintenance, journey planning, and more.

“For many businesses, one of the worries of carbon offsetting is the cost – however, it is often surprisingly cheap. The rewards that the customer stands to gain, in terms of gaining additional business due to its green credentials, is far greater.”
