By partnering with Carbon Neutral Britain we have been able to calculate our current carbon footprint and are verified to the highest standards via the four largest Carbon Certifications in the world – the Verified Carbon Standard (VCS), Gold Standard Voluntary Emission Reductions (VER), UK and EU Emissions Trading Standard (EU + UK ETS), and the United Nations Certified Emission Reductions (CER) programmes.

With our calculation which takes into account all aspects of the business we have financially commited to help various projects which preserve and restore eco systems around the world and locally.
Transparency is important to us so you can find our carbon report here and more details on the projects we are involved in here
We did not think it was enough just to be Carbon Neutral so we took our calculated Carbon footprint of 22.17 Tonnes of Carbon and actually offset by 45 Tonnes so that we are putting back significantly more than we are using. As well as our work with Carbon Neutral Britain we have planted a tree for ever school we have on roll approximately 400 at the time of publish, this offsets another 120 tonnes of Carbon. You can find our full Carbon Report here.
On top of our own efforts to become Carbon neutral from 2022 we will also commit to planting 10 trees for new schools and then another every year you use our service. You can see our school forest at https://moretrees.eco/forest/jhpschools/
