You can make the difference
By switching your telephone
lines to green telecom, you will be contributing towards our offsetting
projects in the UK and overseas. You will be issued with a certificate
to show that you have made the difference and you will have free
use of the Carbon Reduction 'we
use green telecom minutes' logo for use on your web site or
headed paper. Remember this will be in addition to reducing your
current telephone bills to recognise your contribution.
Green Credentials
Where do we start.? Green
telecom have environmental policies and procedures as well as
an active green working group. In 2008 and 2009 Green Telecom
traded as carbon positive by over offsetting the carbon footprint
created from their operations. Our systems installations division
has operated a tree planting programme since May 2008.
Green Testimonials
"We were very impressed that Green Telecom
traded as carbon positive in 2009 and are trading in an environmentally
responsible manner”. - Mrs Ruth Moore - St Paul's Cathedral
"Using Green telecom for our telephone calls
and line rental is helping us achieve our carbon reduction and
saving us money, It really is the best of both worlds" -

| Carbon Reduction Commitment
(CRC)
Green Telecom are committed
to helping organisations meet their telecom CRC whilst saving
them money. We do not believe that going green should cost organisations
more. The CRC scheme is also a key part of the UK's strategy for
controlling and reducing CO2 emissions.
Green Phone Calls
Green Telecom are working
with carriers and suppliers to calculate carbon offset costs for
telephone calls made on their networks. Having your calls routed
through these green phone suppliers costs you no more as a percentage
of these call costs are paid to offset projects and carbon reduction
programme.
Offsetting Programs
Our Offset project in 2008
(in addition to our UK tree planting programme) was a wind energy
project in Harshnath, India and the total estimated reductions
from this carbon offset project are 16,591 tonnes of CO2. In 2009
we are looking to support local UK projects and in particular
local offset and eco projects that will be of benefit to local
communities.
