Why we are carbon neutral
We are proud to be the first fire services organisation in Australia to
achieve carbon neutral certification.
We have made a commitment to our staff, clients and partners to better
understand our environmental impact and actively make changes to the way
we conduct business across Australia. We have seen great satisfaction
amongst our staff and clients that we are taking action on climate change
and we will actively encourage the organisations we work with to reduce
their carbon footprint.
Our longevity in the fire industry is attributable to our desire and
willingness to explore new technologies and to challenge traditional ways
of doing business. We have identified carbon neutral as a key driver of
innovation, creativity and diversity in our sector. We want to lead our
industry in new ways of developing and delivering business that fosters
and encourages greater and sustainable practices.

The project is ambitious, encompassing regenerative farming, threatened
species recovery and work into bio-links

emissions they are not able to completely eliminate, by investing in
projects that reduce or remove emissions.
