Leading Environmental Consultancy adds to its carbon offsetting portfolio.
Delta-Simons environmental consultants have agreed a special partnership with the Woodland Trust which allows them to offer the Trust’s carbon offset product Carbonplus+ to their own customers.
The Lincoln-based consultancy’s ground-breaking relationship with the UK’s leading woodland conservation charity means that it can provide an offset mechanism for clients that specifically want to offset their carbon emissions by planting trees in the UK.
Gareth Pickles, Managing Director, Delta-Simons explains, “We are absolutely delighted to have established this relationship with the Woodland Trust. Through this relationship we can provide our customers, and a wider corporate audience, the UK tree planting carbon offsetting route they want, whilst at the same time being able to give them the confidence about the quality of the scheme and permanence of the new woodland – after all, planting new trees and looking after existing stock is what the Trust is all about.
“The Woodland Trust’s Carbonplus+ product is a great solution for companies who are working hard to reduce their carbon footprint, and is probably the most ecologically friendly way to offset carbon as it creates habitat and conservation space at the same time.”
Increasing the use of renewable sources of energy and being more energy efficient are vital steps we all need to take. Being able to offset the balance of remaining emissions through the Woodland Trust means that companies can become carbon neutral and mitigate their contribution to the causes of climate change and help nature conservation and habitat creation too.
Gareth continues, “Through our sustainability division Shining Earth™ we work with companies who want to improve their environmental and business performance in harmony. We will only sell the Woodland Trust’s Carbonplus+ product to companies who can demonstrate a commitment to reducing their emissions and their overall environmental impact.
“In addition to the Woodland Trust offsets, our Shining Earth™ team can offset carbon emissions in conjunction with our other industry leading partners, including The CarbonNeutral Company.
“Delta-Simons provides this carbon offsetting as a ‘not for profit’ service to our customers and, by combining small offset volumes together, we are able to combine forces and leverage our bulk buying power to keep offsetting costs down. This allows our clients to take advantage of our auditable portfolio of offsetting schemes worldwide and do their bit for the environment and the green credentials of their companies.”
