Regional Spotlight - ECOAUSTRALIA
Reducing global emissions and restoring native vegetation
EcoAustralia™ combines Australian government-endorsed biodiversity credits with international carbon credits, giving organisations offsetting with this product the opportunity to fight global climate change and contribute to the regeneration and preservation of Australia’s most vulnerable ecosystems. Melbourne Airport were pleased to implement EcoAustralia™’s carbon offset package:
The EcoAustralia™ offset package provides Melbourne Airport with the opportunity to support Victorian biodiversity assets, and contribute to the global effort to reduce carbon emissions. We proudly offset our staff travel and vehicle fleet every year and look forward to continuing that with South Pole.
