Vital have offset 15,693,000 miles through the Carbon neutral scheme retiring 6,075 tons of CO2 emissions.

​Decomposing plants and other organisms, buried beneath layers of sediment and rock, have taken millennia to become the carbon-rich deposits we now call fossil fuels. These non-renewable fuels, which include coal, oil, and natural gas, supply about 80 percent of the world’s energy. They provide electricity, heat, and transportation, while also feeding the processes that make a huge range of products, from steel to plastics. When fossil fuels are burned, they release carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases, which in turn trap heat in our atmosphere, making them the primary contributors to global warming and climate change.

Our fleet is an essential tool for us to practice our trade providing support to Rail infrastructure maintenance across the UK. Although we burn fuel, we care about the impact it has on the environment which is why Vital are proud members of Shell’s Drive Carbon Neutral programme which allows us the opportunity to lower our carbon footprint and drive carbon neutral.
