Europcar Greenfleet

Europcar Australia are a nation-wide car rental company. They have partnered with Greenfleet to offset the cardon emissions from their rental fleet. For each car Greenfleet plants 17 native trees and based on the average emissions this is enough to absorb the greenhouse gases a car produces in a year.

They began the program in December 2006 with the purchase of 836 new Subaru vehicles and the subsequent planting of about 14000 native trees. During the course of 2007 they bought in the remainder of their 6000 strong fleet.

Customers can also help by donating $2 each time they rent a car to help offset the emissions and help maintain a carbon neutral fleet.
