Carbon offsetting
We pay Greenfleet to offset more CO2 than what our vehicles emit each year. Greenfleet plants native trees that grow and sequester CO2 from the atmosphere. At the end of each financial year, we calculate the total kilometres our team has driven, find out how many tonnes of CO2 that would have produced given the make and model of our vehicles, and then offset at least 110% of that amount.
BGB FY2019/20 Greenfleet Offset Certificate <- Purchased in 2021 because we hadn’t thought of this back in 2020.
Recycled plastic bin liners
We use plastic bin liners that are made of at least 80% pre-consumer recycled plastic. Pre-consumer waste is material that is discarded before it was ready for consumer use, like plastic trimmings or manufacturing scrap on a production line. In the future, we’ll be looking for alternative bin liners that are made from post-consumer waste (plastic that has already been used in consumer products).
