About UsWho we are and what we do!

Global Warming has serious consequences for all living organisms, but it is of especially great concern for the polar bear. According to the U.S. Geological Survey Office, reduction in sea ice in the Arctic can see a loss of 2/3rds of the entire world’s Polar Bear population over the next 50 years.

There are an estimated 20,000 Polar Bears in the wild and they depend upon the arctic weather for their livelihood.

Today, there are many accounts of Polar Bear global warming related deaths attributed to drowning. The Polar Bear is doomed if something isn’t done to reverse the dangers of global warming.  The polar is a magnificent species and key to the Arctic habitat and we have adopted Nanuk as our mascot to highlight the plight of the polar bear and to encourage everyone to modify their lifestyle and reduce their carbon footprint.

One of the best ways we as individuals  can prevent the affects of global warming on polar bears is to reduce our personal  (CO₂) Carbon Dioxide emissions. The only way to see a halt in global warming is for everyone to make a change, no matter how small those changes may seem. It is everyone’s responsibility to do his or her part and give Polar Bears a chance. The biggest personal impact we can make on CO₂ emissions is reviewing what vehicles we drive.

So please consider a greener car with lower CO₂ emissions when looking to replace your car.  The available options have improved markedly in recent years and include:

• Diesels are a good choice. Many of the current generation of diesel-engine cars offer impressive fuel economy and low emissions,low running costs and impressive performance.
• Hybrids Although there are not many types of hybrid car currently on sale in the UK, they are probably the most practical option available – combining a small conventional petrol or diesel engine with an electric generator/motor unit.

• Electric cars have also been available for some time, though the current versions are considerably more refined than some of their predecessors. Their short range still dictates that they remain largely restricted to the role of urban run-around, but with zero direct emissions at street level, they make a significant contribution to reducing pollution in our towns and cities. However, the electricity they use demands them to be regularly plugged into the grid to recharge – so they cannot be regarded as entirely “green” as they are sometimes seen.
• Other possibilties include LPG conversions and Compressed Natural Gas conversions

Please drive a greener car

• It can be cheaper to run
• It can be cheaper to tax
• It can have a better residual value
• It helps to reduce your carbon footprint
