Sokolis Group Takes an Environmental Leadership Position by Becoming Carbon Neutral and Supporting Renewable Energy through Carbonfund.org
(CSRwire) Philadelphia, PA,. - June 10, 2008 - Sokolis Group announced today that
it is offsetting its
carbon emissions with Carbonfund.org,
one of the country’s leading carbon offset organizations. Sokolis Group
is offsetting all its carbon emissions for the year. This commitment
establishes Sokolis Group as an environmental leader in the oil and gas
consulting community and demonstrates the proactive steps Sokolis Group is
taking in the fight against global climate change.
Sokolis Group's clients are very concerned about global warming.
Considering the implications of climate change, carbon offsets through
Carbonfund.org are a natural extension of the work Sokolis Group does on
behalf of its stakeholders.
Sokolis Group provides consulting services to fleets concerning strategies
to reduce total fuel consumption, assists fleet owners with fuel supply
chain management strategies, and identifies more efficient methods of
operating and implement various types of technology to reduce fleet
emissions. It evaluates ROA, ROI, and fueling methodologies and performs
cost benefit analysis to provide complete solutions for entire fleet
management.
Since its core business is based on fuel consumption, it recognizes how
important it is to support the development of renewable energy and do its
own part by neutralizing its carbon footprint, as well as helping its
clients do the same. Sokolis Group believes in leading by example, so it
joined Carbonfund.org's CarbonFree Partner Program.
"It's time to bring innovative ideas to the marketplace and capitalize on
alternative fuels and technologies that make sense in the long term," said
McKenzie Egender, Executive Consultant of Sokolis Group. "Sokolis Group
specializes in helping fleets identify the most cost-effective fuel
strategies and sustainable fuel reduction models. Sokolis Group is
committed to supporting renewable energy projects."
"By reducing and offsetting its own footprint, Sokolis Group is sending a
strong message that it is serious about fuel-use reduction and energy
efficiency," said Eric Carlson, Executive Director of Carbonfund.org.
"That’s good news for its clients and for the environment. We're happy
to have them onboard as a CarbonFree Partner."
