Go Green with VPA: Carbon Neutral Shopping

March 26, 2022 3 min read

Shopping with VPA^® just got better with a carbon-neutral option on checkout! Learn more about how you can shop sustainably and create a positive impact on the environment with VPA^®.

What Is Carbon Neutral Shopping?

Carbon Neutral Shopping is an eco-friendly movement where stores aim to become fully sustainable and help reduce greenhouse gas emissions by reducing their energy consumption and becoming greener stores. The movement aims to help consumers shop with a purpose and do their part in helping save our planet from climate change.

Why Start Carbon Neutral shopping?

We all know about the negative effects of a carbon footprint on our planet, but we have to do something about it. CarbonClick provides us with the opportunity to fight against the effects of climate change by shopping with them and reducing our carbon footprint. VPA^® is doing its part to help save the environment through EcoCart. We are giving you the opportunity to join us in this worthy cause as we provide you with an option to reduce your carbon footprints upon checkout.

What happens when you choose Carbon Neutral Shopping?

When you choose Carbon Neutral Shopping, you're making a choice to support carbon-neutral growth. Most consumers know that every step of the buying process poses a significant impact to the environment. But few people realise how much their choices matter regarding what kind of impact they make on our planet.

To combat climate change and do our part for the environment, we must make choices that have less of an impact on our planet. At VPA^® we make sure we contribute. VPA^® packaging materials are made to look good while doing good with its eco-friendly packaging.

Choosing Carbon Neutral Shopping is one way we can take immediate action and show our commitment to being environmentally friendly. Making this choice will positively impact the global climate crisis, which is currently one of Earth's top priorities.

Other ways VPA^® Australia show its support:

Solar-powered Warehouse:

A warehouse is a place where goods are stored, sorted, shipped and received. Warehouses may be used by manufacturers, importers, exporters, wholesalers, transport businesses, customs, and they are also used by many companies for storage of their products.

A solar powered warehouse helps to reduces its carbon footprint by using renewable energy sources to power the facilities in the warehouse.

Solar panels are the most common way to harness the sun’s energy for use within a building or home. Its photovoltaic cells convert sunlight into energy that can then be used to power household items such as lights and electrical appliances. Solar cells are now commonly placed on rooftops of buildings and homes to generate electricity for their inhabitants.
