Daisy looks to grow green message
Telecoms firm Daisy Communications has launched its own carbon calculator andoffsetting service after reaching carbon-neutral status.
The firm, in partnership with the Carbon Advice Group, has already offset 255
metric tonnes of carbon dioxide – the total annual emissions created by its
everyday business practices.
It is now urging more firms to follow its lead by introducing a range of
carbon calculators on its site.
Stuart Cordingley, director of product and marketing at Daisy, said: “We are
taking our environmental obligations seriously and are keen to encourage others
to do the same. Climate change is emerging as a major challenge for modern
society. Government, business, and wider society will all be affected. All of us
have a role to play in tackling it.
“Working with the Carbon Advice Group, we have created a simple and
effective way for the business community to find out their own carbon footprint
and to do something about it, there and then.”
Matthew Sullivan, chief executive of Carbon Advice Group, said: “We are
delighted that Daisy is taking such clear, positive action to deliver a carbon
reduction and offsetting message to its customers, stakeholders and staff. It
is leading from the front in the way it is spreading this vital awareness.”
