Offsetters Helps Salt Spring Coffee Company to be Canada's First Carbon Neutral Coffee Company
Vancouver, B.C. – Offsetters has been selected to provide high quality carbon offsets to Salt Spring Coffee to help them achieve carbon neutral status.
As Canada’s premier provider of high quality carbon offsets, Offsetters was selected to provide carbon offsets to Salt Spring Coffee after a rigorous screening process. Salt Spring Coffee was already carbon neutral when they decided to switch a portion of their business to Offsetters. They were excited by Offsetters’ Canadian projects and Offsetters is looking forward to potentially expanding their role with Salt Spring Coffee after we launch our own international projects by 2009.
Being carbon neutral means that Salt Spring Coffee has invested significant effort in reducing its greenhouse gas emissions and purchased high quality carbon offsets for what it could not reduce. Offset initiatives supported by Salt Spring Coffee Company include a number of BC groundsource heat pump projects generating high-quality, verified emission reductions.
“Salt Spring Coffee is is an example of the climate leadership and stewardship that a growing number of firms are showing today,” said Offsetters CEO Dr. James Tansey. “Through a comprehensive approach of understanding and reducing its climate impact then purchasing high quality carbon offsets for the remainder, Salt Spring Coffee has shown that meaningful action on climate change is not an insurmountable challenge but rather a key way to reduce energy costs and improve brand equity. True carbon neutrality is very achievable.”
