As individuals, we can all work toward reducing our carbon footprint. While we should aim to minimise our environmental impact where we can, offsetting emissions is a good way to neutralise the carbon we can’t avoid.

Imagine 8,400 tonnes of CO2-e – it’s the amount of carbon 365 average people will produce in Australia each year. Or the amount of carbon emitted annually by over 2,000 average sized cars. It’s also the amount of carbon that has now been offset with our 12 month offset, CarbonCover 365.

‘Anxious’ is a word that often comes up in relation to the way we feel about our climate. Many of us are anxious that we are not doing enough and that our carbon footprint is negatively impacting the world around us.

We are thrilled to share with you Greenfleet’s 2019 Impact Report. We’re so excited for you to read the stories, achievements and impact we were able to make last year. In 2019, Greenfleet planted over 226,00 native, biodiverse trees in Australia and New Zealand. Over their lifetime, these trees will sequester 201,356 tonnes of CO2-e. 

There’s a lot to consider when it comes to organisations and individuals taking climate action. While offsetting your emissions and becoming “carbon neutral” can go hand in hand, the terms are not always interchangeable. Additionally, the process for becoming ‘carbon neutral certified’ is formal and rigorous.

Greenfleet's latest and most comprehensive carbon offset is CarbonCover 365, which covers the next 12 months of your life. Right now, there is a critical need to take action on climate change and we all have a responsibility to reduce our impact on the planet.
