CREATING CORPORATE CARBON CREDITS FROM RAIL
Where an organisation changes their freight from road or other carbon intensive transport modes to rail,
the carbon credit savings will reduce their organisation's carbon footprint.
Similarly, an organisation can provide their employees with passenger rail transport as an alternative to using road
vehicles to achieve a lower carbon footprint.
While carbon does not have a cost attached to it currently via a cap and trade mechanism, carbon reductions can be
applied to reduce an organisation's Greenhouse Gas audit total as an early action response to Global Warming with
the benefits of enhancing their environemntal reputation and acquiring knowledge on this emerging activity.
QR Limited, as part of their GORAIL Program, are currently applying for Abatement Accreditation for Rail with the
Australian Greenhouse Office. In the meantime we encourage you to take action to reduce your carbon footprint as a
sustainable activity.
To request more information and assistance to participate in these programs, complete the Carbon Credits Request form or
