OUR COMMITMENT
Reliable and responsible internet and mobile, that does not cost the planet.
We have always been aware of the carbon emissions Goodtel produces as a business as well as those created by the wider telco industry and since launching in December 2019 it has been our goal to take responsibility for our output and become a Climate Active certified carbon neutral business.
Both the way we measure the carbon output associated with running our business and the projects we invest in must meet strict criteria set out by Climate Active. Climate Active is underpinned by the Australian Government and its carbon neutral certification is one of the most rigorous in the world.
Goodtel was created to help protect the planet and those in need, so achieving this status supports the values we uphold and demonstrates our commitment to being a good business. We have chosen to do this because we truly do care out the impact we have on our planet, and we're doing this without passing on any cost to you, because carbon neutrality should not come at the cost of the earth.
THE PROCESS
How did Goodtel become certified carbon neutral?
After thorough auditing to calculate the greenhouse gas emissions generated by our business activity, we offset this by investing in a project that helps neutralise the carbon we release.
Every year, that audit is independently verified against Climate Active's standard - so the claim isn't just marketing; it's measured and checked.
