Car Insurance–green
Get rewarded for going green
We have all heard about the problems that are facing our environment in this day and age. Pollution, carbon emissions and waste products are all taking its toll on the planet we live on. Many of us will be doing our own small bit to make the world a “greener” place. Maybe you recycle your waste at home, or you turn the lights and taps off when you are not using them. Perhaps you have turned the thermostat on your central heating down a notch, saving money and being kinder to the environment in the process.
Every little helps, and doing these small things can make a big difference. Not only that, but they also help you cut down on your energy and water bills and so save you some cash in the process. So, with that in mind, what about thinking about your driving? Taking the “green” approach on the roads will not only help the environment, it could also get you discounts on your car insurance.
There are many environmentally-friendly car insurance companies out there. You will not only get discounts for driving fewer miles or for having a car that is more environmentally-friendly, but you will also be joining firms that are committed to reducing their carbon footprint wherever possible.
For example, many companies like this choose to only use paper that is 100 per cent recyclable or opt to donate a percentage of their profits to charitable causes. Some offset your carbon emissions by funding tree planting, meaning that by going green with your car insurance your carbon emissions are neutralised by what your insurance company gives back to the environment.
Many of these companies make every effort possible to cut down their impact on the environment, so by using them you are automatically doing that little bit extra to help the environment.
And if you drive a car that has an engine capacity of less than 1.4, or has low emissions, you can often get a discount when you choose a green company to take your car insurance out with. It is always worth getting in touch with them and asking for a quote on your car insurance. This will cost you nothing and they could be cheaper than your current provider. Taking out the policy means you will be doing just that little bit more for the planet we live on.
