Offset your historic vehicle emissions

It has never been more important to act on climate change and historic vehicle enthusiasts can now balance their love of heritage vehicles with genuine care for the planet.  

The Association Of Motoring Clubs (AOMC) is working with Greenfleet who is leading the way, planting biodiverse native forests to capture carbon emissions and help fight the impacts of climate change.

Greenfleet has been restoring native forests for 25 years, planting over 10.5 million trees and creating more than 550 forests, which are legally protected for up to 100 years. This work conserves biodiversity and restores habitat for wildlife, including many endangered species.

Working with Greenfleet, the AOMC has put together a simple way for historic vehicle owners to offset their carbon emissions.  For the historic vehicle movement to thrive in the future and attract new enthusiasts, we need to care about the planet as much as we care about our vehicles. Offsetting our carbon emissions is a practical way we can do this.  

How does carbon offsetting work?

To offset your vehicle's carbon emissions, you need to nominate how many kilometres you drive per year in your historic vehicle(s). Greenfleet will then plant enough protected, native trees to offset the carbon emissions generated.

You will receive a Greenfleet certificate of appreciation. Greenfleet is a Deductible Gift Recipient organisation, so donations and offsets of $2 or more are tax deductible in Australia.

Why offset your historic vehicle emissions?

By offsetting your vehicle's carbon emissions, you are helping the climate and demonstrating the commitment vintage car enthusiasts have to minimising environmental impact, while preserving motoring heritage. 

Your support will help the AOMC demonstrate that we care about the future as much as our history. We're supporting Greenfleet to grow climate hope and calling on you to join us.
