Fleet management specialist RVM Fleet Services has launched a new
initiative to help businesses reduce the environmental impact of their company
vehicles.
The new carbon offset programme will measure the carbon footprint of a fleet and purchase
verified carbon units to offset emissions.
The scheme will
be a standard feature of the firm’s entire portfolio of accident and risk
management services.
Managing Director of RVM, Diana Rose, said: “The new scheme will be an
integral part of our service enabling RVM clients to run their fleets in a
responsible carbon-friendly way without the need for additional investment.
“We recognise that running a fleet is very often our clients’ most
polluting activity and as our continuing contribution and tangible commitment
to the green debate, we are delighted to be able to offer this
contribution.
“Having pioneered other unique market initiatives, we are demonstrating
once again that RVM is a customer-focused, innovative and environmentally
responsible business that solves current-day issues for its clients.”
The scheme had been developed in conjunction with a carbon sourcing organisation
that guarantees high quality, certified and traceable carbon credits from
forestry products in the developing world. The credits will be certified
by internationally recognised standards such as the ‘Verified Carbon Standard’
(VCS) and the ‘Climate, Community and Biodiversity’ (CCB) standard.
