Shipping carbon neutral with UPS
Are you conscious about the impact your shipping has on the environment?
UPS ships millions of packages each day. We know that our customers are as concerned as we are about the impact shipping has on the environment. That's why, in addition to other sustainability efforts, we offer a carbon neutral shipping option. Your business can reduce its carbon dioxide (CO2) impact while demonstrating your commitment to sustainability.

UPS purchases certified carbon (CO2) offsets to give you a way to balance out the emissions produced by the transportation of your shipments. UPS has supported projects that include reforestation, landfill gas destruction, wastewater treatment, and methane destruction.

Using our carbon neutral shipping option lets you demonstrate your commitment to reducing climate impact, and enables you and your package recipients to share in that commitment.

When you select our carbon neutral option at the time of shipping, UPS will match the number of offsets purchased through 2011 up to a total of $1 million. Because we have customers around the globe, our goal is to contribute to quality projects worldwide.
