Carbon Offsetting Programmes


In July 2010 Green Telecom Planted 100 Biodiversity Trees throughout the UK, creating wildlife habitats and helping to secure biodiversity. For further information Click Here |
Its a Hat-trick! For three years running, Green Telecom have operated as a Carbon Positive company. Our business carbon footprint was calculated and (over) offset to a Wind Energy Project in Harshnath, India. The objective of this carbon offset project is development, design, engineering, procurement, finance, construction, operation and maintenance of wind power projects totaling 4.8 MW wind power projects in the Indian state of Rajasthan to provide reliable, renewable power to the Rajasthan state electricity grid which is part of the Northern regional electricity grid. The project will lead to reduced greenhouse gas emissions because it displaces electricity from fossil fuel based electricity generation plants. The carbon offset project activity contributes towards sustainable development of the country and the state of Rajasthan by reducing the dependency on fossil fuel based electricity generation, which ultimately leads to reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. The carbon offset project also fulfils several other sustainable development objectives as set out below:
