The First Carbon Neutral Supply Chain Investment Bank
BG Strategic Advisors Partners with Carbonfund.org to go CarbonFree
(CSRwire) PALM BEACH, FL - January 25, 2008 – BG Strategic Advisors announced
today that it is offsetting its carbon emissions with Carbonfund.org, one
of the country’s leading carbon offset organizations. BG Strategic
Advisors is now the first supply chain investment bank to join the
CarbonFree program. This commitment establishes BG Strategic Advisors as
an environmental leader in the supply chain and investment banking
community and demonstrates the proactive steps BG Strategic Advisors is
taking in the fight against global climate change.
BG Strategic Advisors' team and clients are concerned about global
warming. Considering the implications of climate change, carbon offsets
through Carbonfund.org are a natural extension of the work BG Strategic
Advisors does to help its clients.
BG Strategic Advisors' Managing Director Benjamin Gordon said, "Our supply
chain clients focus on efficiency. They help more freight move through a
fixed number of trucks, trains, and ships. As a result, they are already
doing their part to reduce the carbon footprint of their supply chains.
Now it's time for us to do our part."
"BG Strategic Advisors recognizes that every sector in the economy has a
part to play in reducing promoting the clean energy future. Not just
freight movers but the financial institutions that support them are
responsible for greenhouse gas emissions," said Eric Carlson, Executive
Director of Carbonfund.org. "With this partnership, BG Strategic Advisors
is signaling their commitment to corporate environmental responsibility.
I'm very happy to welcome them to the CarbonFree program."
BG Strategic Advisors has built a reputation as a thought leader in the
supply chain sector. Through articles, presentations, and their annual
BGSA Supply Chain conference, BGSA has become known as an innovator in the
sector. As the first CarbonFree supply chain investment bank, BGSA will
continue to develop this reputation for leading-edge expertise.
