Neal’s Yard Remedies Goes CarbonNeutral®

Neal’s Yard Remedies has become the first nationwide high street retailer in the UK to be awarded the CarbonNeutral® brand mark, reducing their carbon footprint is net zero.
 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PRLog (Press Release)Apr 25, 2008 – Organic skin care company http://nealsyardremedies.co.uk CarbonNeutral status covers direct and indirect operations at the company head offices, production facility and company owned shops including travel, energy and waste disposal.

To achieve its accreditation, Neal’s Yard Remedies skin care company went through a rigorous process which involved measuring CO2 emissions from travel, waste and energy, setting in motion plans to reduce CO2 gradually through internal changes and immediately reducing the remaining CO2 emissions to zero through carbon offsetting. Over time, the company will need to buy less carbon credits to deliver its net zero CO2 emissions status as the internal changes start to come to fruition.

Jonathan Hook, MD of http://remedies.nealsyardremedies.com says, “We are committed to reducing the impact of our business on the environment. This means using organic, natural and sustainable ingredients in our products, reducing waste and supporting recycling. Given the threat of climate change to people and communities, we believe that it is vital that we take a leadership role by striving to be carbon neutral.  We want to be a successful business while respecting and preserving the world in which we live.”

Sue Welland, Founder & Creative Director, The CarbonNeutral Company said, “ We are very excited that the CarbonNeutral message is now entering the high street through the leading work that Neal’s Yard Remedies is doing. Climate change effects all of us – and as individuals and through the companies we work for we each have a social duty to tackle this issue, which is exactly that Neal’s Yard Remedies are helping to do.”

Organic skin care Neal’s Yard Remedies http://www.nealsyardremediescommunity.com/community/carb ... ‘Carbon Action Plan 2008’ sets out clear business targets that will help it deliver its carbon emission reductions over the coming year.
