GreenPlan
GreenPlan
LeasePlan has contributed to the reduction of environmental pollution by implementing its global GreenPlan initiative.
GreenPlan was designed to support the efforts of companies and drivers who wish to have “greener” corporate fleets and reduce the release of emissions into the atmosphere.
With the GreenPlan service, LeasePlan offers its customers the appropriate tools so as to estimate the extent of their fleet’s emissions and, wherever feasible, takes actions so as to offset these emissions. Moreover, the choice of vehicles and green driving are parameters that play a significant role in reducing environmental pollution.
LeasePlan is totally liable for all of the corporate fleets that is manages:
Pursuant to the Kyoto Protocol to the United Nations Framework Convention On Climate Change (link), the European Union declares that by 2012 vehicle manufacturers must aim at reducing CO2 emissions to a mean level of 130gr/km.
In this framework, LeasePlan uses this number as a reference point during discussions with its customers and counterbalances any difference that may arise between the target and actual emissions by funding counterbalancing activities.
