ClimateCare is one of the longest established and leading environment-focused organisations in the carbon market. ClimateCare originates and sources carbon credits on behalf of businesses, Non Governmental Organisations and Sovereign States and runs many of the world’s largest corporate carbon offset programmes.
ClimateCare’s world leading experts develop and consult on innovative Emission Reduction Projects throughout the world – with a focus on Sub Saharan Africa and the World’s Least Developed Countries. These projects sit on the emerging nexus between private sector finance and the climate/development/aid sectors. ClimateCare uses carbon finance not only to reduce Greenhouse Gas emissions but to accelerate sustainable, low carbon development.
The team specialises in socially focused projects with tangible development impacts; renewable energy, energy efficiency, improved cookstoves and clean water provision. Every project we develop is designed to contribute towards fulfilling the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs).
ClimateCare is also an award winning carbon offset provider for SME businesses and individuals - enabling you to take responsibility for your residual carbon footprint by offsetting your remaining emissions.
Why is there no hybrid option? Hybrids do not use a different fuel from conventional combustion engines, but use your breaking power to generate heat energy which is stored in a battery to be used when conditions permit (for example during city driving). You are still using petrol to drive the vehicle, but the fuel economy should be better as you are using your breaking power too. So all we need from you is the distance you’ve travelled, your fuel economy and fuel type to calculate the emissions.
To find out your vehicle fuel economy consult the log book or the manufacturer or use the following assumptions;
Petrol A typical small car may have a fuel economy of 38 mpg A typical medium car may have a fuel economy of 30 mpg A typical large car may have a fuel economy of 22 mpg Diesel A typical small diesel car may have a fuel economy of 51mpg A typical large diesel car may have a fuel economy of 31 mpg
These figures are based on UK averages as per Guidelines to Defra / DECC's GHG Conversion Factors for Company Reporting.
