Carbon Clear WiFi Hotspot Company

Home / WiFi Hotspot Info

PolkaSpots has partnered with Carbon Clear to cut emissions and gain zero impact status.

A leading carbon management organisation, Carbon Clear (www.carbon-clear.com) specialises in helping businesses and individuals reduce their carbon footprint through emissions reduction and carbon offsetting.

While most employees at PolkaSpots cycle, skate or use public transport, other aspects of our business are polluting the environment. We therefore decided to offset carbon emissions in a number of groundbreaking initiatives:

We began by shipping all our local orders using a Carbon Neutral courier company and by printing only on recycled materials, turning off unnecessary equipment and putting the printers on automatic timer.

Secondly, we considered how to make our WiFi Hotspots greener. While the equipment installed is not very polluting, it all adds up. For every location that signs up for a PolkaSpots WiFi Hotspot, we will plant 10 trees! This is more than enough to offset what our equipment is emitting and it goes a long way to offset other polluting aspects of the business practises.

Finally, we introduced only this morning a couple of new online, green price plans so that everyone is given the opportunity to do something for the environment without any hassle. We’ve added two price plans, which are only £1 and £2 more than the standard packages:

£4 – 60 Minute Green Card. We’ll plant 1 tree on your behalf.
£8 – 180 Minute Green Card. We’ll plant 2 trees

This won’t break the bank, nor are we making any extra money.

This is just a start. Help us make the world a greener place!
