Shell to offset fuel carbon emissions at UK petrol stations
Oil giant Shell has announced plans to offset carbon emission from fuel at a number of its UK petrol stations.
The new project will see Shell offset the carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from customers’ fuel purchases on their behalf.
The energy firm is planning to roll the initiative out across 1,000 Shell UK service stations.
Sinead Lynch, Shell UK country chairwoman, said: “Switching to an electric vehicle is the best way for drivers to reduce their CO2 footprints and they can now charge on a growing number of our UK forecourts with 100% renewable electricity.
“But today the majority of people still use petrol and diesel. We can help them address the impact of their emissions by offsetting their fuel purchases, starting now.”
