Sustainable Business of the Year Finalist
We’re delighted to be a Sustainable Business of the Year Finalist in the Reigate & Banstead Business Awards.
This acknowledges the planning, investment and implementation that goes into our sustainability and environmental policies.
Mike Connick, MD of Connick Tree Care, says, “I’ve always been proud to be working in a business that is ‘green’ to the core”.
And it goes a lot further than just preserving the health of trees, which themselves play a crucial role in absorbing CO2 out of the atmosphere.
We also help our clients achieve their environmental policies, such as advising on the design and implementation of the heating system at Pembury Hospital.
A condition of the planning consent was that 10% of the energy required (3 million kWh) came from a renewable source.
The installed biomass boiler produces this amount and reduces carbon emissions by 471,000kg per month.
So at one end of the process we are encouraging trees and the absorption of CO2, at the other end we are helping to reduce the use of fossil fuels and the CO2 that they emit into the atmosphere.
