CARBON OFFSETTING
“We are proud to be working with Cool Earth in an effort to help slow the relentless destruction of the rainforests.”
- Dan Mountain, CEO, Buyagift Plc
Our Promise
We will offset the carbon from our experiences by a factor of four.

Our Aim
To do what we can to make a difference.
We're proud to announce that we now offset four times the carbon created by the experiences we sell and by the day to day running of our business. This offsetting scheme is a cost absorbed by Buyagift Plc and none of these costs are passed on to
our customers.

Having researched Carbon offsetting schemes for some time we came to the conclusion that one of the best ways of achieving meaningful results was to help protect existing rainforest that was in imminent danger of deforestation.

Working in conjunction with Coolearth.org (registered charity number 1117978), we've calculated the carbon footprint of the experiences that we sell,
from Aston Martin driving to Helicopter Flying lessons.

From the 1st January 2009 we have offset the carbon that these experiences create by a factor of four. By offsetting this carbon by a factor of four we are positively contributing to the reduction of carbon emissions and not simply offsetting the carbon our business and its associated activities create. In our view it was only by taking this positive approach that we would actually be making a difference.

From an internal business perspective we have introduced a number of measures to ensure that our carbon footprint
is minimised wherever possible. From environmentally friendly gift packaging to switching off computers at night and using energy saving light bulbs, where possible we are doing what
we can.

We’re also helping to fund Cool Earth's community projects that support the local community and enable local people to earn a sustainable living from the rainforest.
