Be kind to the environment this Christmas and New Year by sending a Carbon Neutral ecard or Gift Certificate and help us plant more trees.

This year in Australia approximately 100 million (Aust Post) Christmas cards will be sent around the country inflicting a heavy toll on the environment.

Trees are cut down and energy is used to produce cards and envelopes with the vast majority ending up in landfill. Paper production is also very water-intensive and the whole production cycle and delivery leads to greenhouse gas emissions which contribute to climate change. 

By choosing to partner with Carbon Neutral and send ecards or Gift Certificates this year you can demonstrate your commitment to the environment by reducing use of natural resources and helping to plant more trees.

There are THREE ecard design options:

*Ecards are only able to be personalised in the indicated areas on the samples.

There are TWO ecard package options:

Regards xxx company.

Gift Certificates are personalised and can be purchased for any value over $30. Donating trees and offsetting emissions for friends and clients is a great gift for the Christmas festive season that will also help the environment.

contact Chris Doherty on 1300 851 211 or chrisd@carbonneutral.com.au to place your order.

How Can the Cards Be Personalised?
Cards come with variable fields where Carbon Neutral will personalise your card with your company’s name.

In ecard samples 2 & 3, your personal message can also be included.

Is the payment tax deductable?
This payment is not tax deductable because it can not be classified as a donation. Therefore GST must be paid and has been included in the price.

What trees will be planted, by whom, where and how?
The trees will be allocated to a site at Coomberdale, Western Australia where Carbon Neutral is planting native mixed biodiversity species. Revegetation has many recorded benefits including increasing soil stability and reducing wind and water erosion. It has also been researched that trees can reduce (water) recharge into the landscape, lowering the groundwater level and combating water logging.

Trees will protect this site from erosion and add to the current remnant vegetation. This will help to increase the biodiversity of the area and create habitat for the native fauna of the area. The sites are degraded and eroded and in an area of high recharge subjecting the site to water logging.
Carbon Neutral has stringent monitoring controls at its planting sites.

Sites are well protected with firebreak, pest, and stock management controls in place.

The species selected for the planting are all native seedlings that have some drought tolerance.
The planting and management of the site is managed by Men of the Trees for Carbon Neutral.

How can I access my cards?
Carbon Neutral will provide you with a URL link to your ecard page on our website once the card has been personalised for you and the payment has been made. The link can then be included in your electronic communications to be sent out and easily accessible for recipients
