Carbon Emissions: Boring business fad or something to worry about?...



co2Since Al Gore began his one man crusade to make the world a cooler place, a lot of focus has been placed on the transport industry and what its combined carbon output is doing to the environment. Finding an exact figure to apportion to transport is tough, but common thinking puts transport in the UK at 22%, half of that being apportioned to cars, the other half to business.

Many companies that own their own fleet are looking at cleaner, more efficient engines. 3rd Party firms are looking to reduce empty running as much as possible and other companies are calling in the consultants, wasting thousands on coming up with ways to formulate reports to help identify ways to improve on the set benchmarks.

This approach to reducing carbon emission is like asking one man to clear the snow... from the North Pole!

Why not focus on the main driver of emissions? Spare capacity. If you can ensure that each trailer leaving the door is full to the brim, your impact on the environment will be considerably improved.

Less vehicles on the road, equals lower emissions.
