Making a Positive Impact on the Planet

As the world becomes more aware of the devastating effects of climate change, many companies are looking for ways to reduce their carbon footprint and become more environmentally responsible. One of the best ways to do this is to aim for net zero carbon emissions, which involves offsetting emissions by investing in renewable energy and other sustainable initiatives. But why is becoming carbon zero so important, and what impact can it have on the planet?

Save the Planet

Perhaps the most obvious benefit of becoming carbon zero is that it helps to save the planet. Climate change is one of the biggest threats facing our world today, and reducing carbon emissions is crucial in preventing its worst effects. By becoming carbon zero, companies can help to reduce the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere and slow down the rate of global warming.

Help Children

Children are particularly vulnerable to the effects of climate change, and by becoming carbon zero, companies can help to ensure that they have a future that is safe and healthy. Children are more susceptible to air pollution, which is a major contributor to climate change, and they are also more likely to be affected by natural disasters and extreme weather events. By reducing their carbon footprint, companies can help to reduce the amount of air pollution, making the world a safer and healthier place for children.

Help the Elderly

Elderly people are also particularly vulnerable to the effects of climate change. They are more likely to suffer from respiratory problems and other health conditions that can be exacerbated by air pollution and extreme weather events. By becoming carbon zero, companies can help to reduce the amount of air pollution, making it easier for elderly people to breathe and stay healthy.

NHS

The National Health Service (NHS) is one of the largest employers in the UK, and it is also one of the largest emitters of carbon. By reducing their carbon footprint, companies can help to reduce the burden on the NHS and ensure that it is better able to provide the care that people need. The NHS is already struggling to cope with the demands of an aging population, and reducing emissions will make it easier for it to provide the care that people need.

Recycling

Recycling is a key part of reducing carbon emissions, and companies can help to reduce their carbon footprint by making sure that they recycle as much as possible. This can include everything from paper and cardboard to plastics and metals, and it can make a big difference in reducing the amount of waste that ends up in landfills. Companies can also encourage their employees to recycle at home, which can help to reduce the amount of waste that is generated overall.

Net Zero

Becoming net zero is a major commitment, but it is one that is well worth making. By reducing their carbon footprint and investing in sustainable initiatives, companies can help to reduce their impact on the environment and help to create a better future for everyone. This can include everything from investing in renewable energy sources, like solar and wind power, to investing in energy-efficient buildings and transport systems.

In conclusion, becoming carbon zero is one of the best ways for companies to make a positive impact on the planet. By reducing their carbon footprint, companies can help to save the planet, help children and the elderly, reduce the burden on the NHS, promote recycling, and make a commitment to net zero emissions. With so many benefits, there has never been a better time for companies to become carbon zero and make a difference in the world.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY

Our customers are at the heart of everything that we do. If they are not achieving their goals then neither are we. Their satisfaction is very important to us and we believe that delivering what our customers want and need, means that we can form a long-lasting partnership.

With the help of RSL, we now have a machine that meets demand, makes a delicious drink and is easy to use. We’re delighted with the service that we are now looking to add further machines to different areas on campus.

Leeds City College

We approached RSL after finding out that they could supply the Vitro coffee machines (which we wanted in our new offices). They were able to offer us the best solution to meet our needs. We are so happy with the service that we have received so far, that we are looking to use them in some of our other sites.

Virgin Money

I would recommend Refreshment Systems to any car dealership that is looking to enhance their customer experience with a high quality drink offering of bean to cup. We have worked with them for a number of years and installed a new machine last year which we could not be happier with.
