The Australian environment has a range of serious problems resulting from population growth, lifestyle, technologies and demands on natural resources. There is growing recognition that many of our practices are not sustainable and we urgently need to reduce our impact on the earth.

So how does a corporation balance economic growth with protecting the environment?
Numerous factors contribute to the effect that your organisation has on the environment every day; your environmental footprint. Becoming Carbon Neutral means that your company balances out this effect with initiatives that help the environment.

Why should your company reduce its environmental footprint?

• Your company will be an environmental innovator, and be seen to be proactive in caring for the environment.
  
• As other companies become carbon neutral they will purchase goods and services from companies that are already carbon neutral.
  
• A regulated emissions trading program in Australia is inevitable. This means retailers and large emitters will be set capped levels of permissible carbon emissions. For every tonne that exceeds this level, they will be penalised by the Government. To avoid penalties, these companies can off-set their emissions by purchasing carbon credits. The price of these credits fluctuates, depending on demand and applicable penalty rates. As soon as the program is regulated, the price will increase dramatically. You can source credits now at a lower value rate.

How can your organisation achieve carbon neutrality?

At Fieldforce, we offer you the opportunity to participate in carbon off-setting; the
greenhouse gases that you can’t avoid are off-set by investing in projects outside your
business, such as measures to reduce emissions in the community, and planting trees.

How we can help?

• We will assist you to measure your company’s current greenhouse gas emissions.
  
• We can facilitate your reduction of carbon emissions by reducing demand, identifying
  alternative energy sources, and converting to greener tasks and solutions.
  
• We can supply carbon off-setting credits to neutralise the remaining emissions through our demand reduction and tree planting schemes.
  
• We can help you promote your initiatives through our public relations and media network, as well as through our carbon neutral networking functions.
  
• Fieldforce can put you in touch with like-minded company leaders and help you to
  develop profitable business relationships.
  
• We can also deliver free demand reduction programs to your staff, as a means of
  extending your company’s greenhouse gas neutralisation project beyond the confines of the office.
