UPS's Ware2Go to Offset Carbon Emissions Across All Shipments

United Parcel Service Inc. company Ware2Go said Friday it would "offset carbon emissions for all small parcel, LTL, FTL, and air shipments within their network."

Ware2Go said all clients will be automatically enrolled in the program at no cost and also said, "the program will retroactively offset all shipments made since January 2021."

Patrick Cadic, chief revenue officer of Ware2Go, said, "Our priority was to make our Carbon Offset Shipping Network easy to adopt and simply part of doing business with Ware2Go. That's why we've chosen to fully fund the initiative and to automatically enroll all of our current and future clients so they can extend their sustainability efforts all the way to their customers' doorsteps."

Ware2Go said it would work with Pachama, a company using satellite imaging and artificial intelligence to measure carbon captured in forests, to "participate in a variety of carbon offset programs, from reforestation to old growth forest conservation, in order to make the maximum impact."
