CARBOB OFFSETTING
Responsible Travel
With the Responsible Travel project, we are building a collaborative model that places sustainability at the heart of employee transportation. Together with our suppliers, we have transformed each journey into a step that gives back to nature planting 267,000 saplings and growing a forest the size of nearly 500 football fields. By promoting the employment of women drivers, we are not only supporting environmental impact but also fostering a more inclusive ecosystem that contributes to social transformation.
- Inception: 2020
- Scope: Employee Transportation Service Providers
- Goal: Donation of 2 saplings for each transported employee
