Nutri-Lawn Takes an Environmental Leadership Position by Joining Carbonfund.org's CarbonFree Program
(CSRwire) KIRKLAND, WA,. - June 18, 2008 - Nutri-Lawn announced today that it is
offsetting its carbon emissions with Carbonfund.org, one of the country's
leading carbon offset organizations. Nutri-Lawn has worked with
Carbonfund.org to offset the emissions from its trucks that provide
service to customers in both King and Snohomish County. This commitment
establishes Nutri-Lawn as an environmental leader in the Pacific Northwest
and demonstrates the proactive steps Nutri-Lawn is taking in the fight
against global climate change.
Nutri-Lawn decided to partner with
Carbonfund.org to not only reduce its climate impact but to support
renewable energy. Because it provides services to customers at their
homes, it must rely on trucks for transportation. Considering the price of
gas and the damage carbon emissions create, Nutri-Lawn decided the time to
act is now. Being ecology friendly, as its slogan states, means not only
using safe products for its clients' landscape but also taking care of the
earth for future generations.
Nutri-Lawn's goals as a company are to provide ecology friendly lawn care
with the safest products on the market, implement integrated pest
management practices to apply them in the safest manner, and to offset the
carbon output it can't avoid in providing service to its clients' homes.
Nutri-Lawn specializes in creating gorgeous, healthy and safe lawns the
organic way. Now its customers will get peace of mind for their children,
pets, neighbors and the environment.
"We all enjoy a nice lawn, and Nutri-Lawn's ecologically friendly lawn
care is the responsible way to go about maintaining one," said Eric
Carlson, Executive Director of Carbonfund.org. "By joining our CarbonFree
Program, Nutri-Lawn is extending its commitment from our yards to our
planet. We're happy to have them onboard."
