Car rental company Avis has launched a new website designed to make it easier for corporates to tackle their carbon emissions and CSR obligations.
The new microsite, Making the World a Little Greener, takes corporate users through the ways and means in which they can reduce their impact on the environment, including details on its fleet of green vehicles and information on how Avis can measure emissions for a corporate’s entire rental account, and advise on how to offset the impact.
The company reports that business customers are actively requesting lower emission cars such as its latest additions the VW Bluemotion and BMW 1 Series and 3 Series (F, H and K groups) vehicles.
Anthony Ainsworth, sales director of Avis UK says, “It seems that a commitment to the environment has not taken a back seat for businesses, despite the recession. Our environmental policy is incredibly important to potential customers, and why not? This will enable them to demonstrate a level of commitment that they can then relay to their employees and to their own customers.”
