Carbon Clear & GreenWay Miles Partner To Provide Logistics Industry Sustainable Shipping Solutions

Online, September 30, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Carbon Clear and GreenWay Miles announce today an exclusive partnership program aimed at providing logistics industry companies carbon footprint certification and sustainable shipping solutions.

GreenWay Miles combines the expertise of two industry experts; Carbon Clear and CostDown Consulting. Carbon Clear is a provider of comprehensive, standards compliant carbon footprints and carbon offsets for hundreds of clients globally. CostDown Consulting provides fleet operating clients cost reduction solutions as well as management of their EPA SmartWay Fleet Partnership Programs.

"We are very fortunate to have Carbon-Clear as a partner," explains Joe White, Founder of GreenWay Miles. "Our search for a provider of facility audits and carbon offsets focused on finding the company that had the best industry reputation for understanding and adhering to the strict standards of Greenhouse Gas Protocol. After all the research and all the interviews, Carbon-Clear was the obvious choice."

By combining each company's specific expertise, GreenWay Miles offers logistics industry companies comprehensive facility (Carbon-Clear) and fleet (CostDown Consulting) carbon audits that, when combined, provide a certified, standards compliant carbon footprint.

For carrier members, GreenWay Miles also calculates and certifies 'per-mile' and 'per-tendered-mile' footprints based on each carrier's carbon footprint and total miles traveled. These calculations provide shippers the much sought after supply chain carbon impact measurement they want from carriers that haul their freight. Additionally, per-mile footprints allow GreenWay Miles certified carriers the ability to offer shippers carbon neutral shipping rates based on carbon offsets provided by Carbon-Clear.

Lauren Knauss, Director with Carbon Clear, added "We are excited to offer shipping companies a program that delivers a cost effective and credible roadmap to understanding and reducing the environmental impact of their business operations."

Costs for the program start from $2250 to $3500, depending on the specific nature of the logistics business. More specific details about the program are available at www.GreenWayMiles.com
