LeasePlan, the world leading fleet management company, recognises that climate change is a global issue that requires local action. GreenPlan has been developed to help our customers better understand their fleet’s impact on the environment and to take positive action against climate change.

LeasePlan is a proud Foundation Supporter of Greenfleet, having supported the organisation’s growth since its inception.

Greenfleet is a not-for-profit organisation, an Approved Abatement Provider under the Department of Climate Change’s Greenhouse Friendly™ program and a key partner in our GreenPlan offering.

Greenfleet offsets greenhouse gas emissions by planting forests that soak up carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Their forests are made up of a wide variety of Australian native trees that also help to reduce soil erosion, improve water quality and provide habitat for native animals.

When  purchasing  Greenhouse  Friendly™  abatement  the  buyer  knows  that  the  quality  of  the forest  plantations  they  are  contributing  towards  are  set  by  the  Federal  Govenment's  Department of  Climate  Change.  Greenfleet’s  status  as  an  Approved  Abatement  Provider  means  that  the organisation  is  bound  by  strict  criteria  in  how  it  plants,  monitors  and  maintains  its  forests.  

Greenfleet has had  to  provide  guarantees  of  the  permanence  of  the  forests  and  proof  of ownership of  the carbon  that  is  held  within  it. It also  has  to  show  that  its  forest  plantings  are  additional  to business  as  usual,  so  you can  be  assured  that  you  are  making  a  real  difference  in  the  fight against  climate  change.

LeasePlan’s partnership with Greenfleet also extends to us offsetting the CO₂e emissions of our own fleet of tool of trade cars.

Australia’s workplaces have a new set of tools to help them cut their contribution to the greenhouse gas emissions that cause climate change.

Greenfleet and the Net Balance Foundation have published a sustainable transport guide that provides employers and their employees with simple, achievable strategies to reduce emissions associated with commuting to and from work, business meetings and freight transport.

The Guide has been developed with key industry players to help all businesses and organisations take up sustainable transport options. This is a visible and often immediate way for businesses to show their commitment to sustainability and a great start for any sustainability journey.

Sustainable transport practices can also deliver significant cost savings, by reducing airfares, fleet costs, fuel costs, car parking and freight costs. Some less obvious benefits are improved employee health from walking, cycling and running to work, increased productivity and a reduction in employee absenteeism.

The Guide provides detailed strategies and examples covering a broad spectrum of transport related issues for all organisations, regardless of size or industry.

Called Your sustainable transport guide, it is available from the Researchers section at www.greenfleet.com.au
