Going Green for the Environment
Modern are excited to share their new ‘Green Initiative’ with you. Each year, our carbon footprint is independently assessed by a company called Greenstone Carbon Management who looks at electricity bills and volumes for the amount of energy used in transporting minutes across the our network. Working with The CarbonNeutral Company to offset this carbon footprint, we purchase carbon credits – every 1 tonne of CO2 is ‘neutralised’ by 1 tonne which is saved somewhere else in the world by a climate friendly project that would not have happened without carbon credit investment.
Projects that our carbon credits are being used on include the Sichuan Province Hydro Power Project in China and a Wind Power Project in India, similar to the Jamnagar Project (starts late 2009).
The Green-O-Meter is a calculator that measures carbon emissions and output a company makes each month, through telephony usage. The calculator allows you to enter the number of minutes of calls a business makes each month to find out their telephony CO2 output, which is offset when the calls are carried across the network we use – therefore doing our bit for the environment.
