Nigel Lambe, CEO, says “We aim to achieve ISO 14001, and are on track to reduce our carbon emissions, by consignment, by a whopping 40% by 2009. We’re adding more and more electric vans to the fleet, have a growing army of bicycle couriers, and will continue to test electric options until we have found vehicles that both reduce our carbon footprint, and are commercially practicable in terms of ensuring continuity of service”.

The GEM team would just like to say, ‘great work guys’, its brilliant to see such an aggressive attitude towards reducing carbon footprint and using zero emissions vehicles especially in a business environment, a great inspiration for many organisations.
