BP should give substance and meaning to "Beyond Petroleum"

Yesterday Tony Hayward announced that he is stepping down and Bob Dudley will be the new CEO from October. It's a perfect moment to reinvent BP and invest in renewables and "Beyond Petroleum", the initiative started by Lord Browne.

Bob Dudley has some background experience in solar and wind, so the appointment could be promising.

Our mission

Our mission is to combat global warming. We do this by planting trees.

Global warming is the big issue of modern times. Climate change affects us all, because we all need to live on this planet and protect its future.

Human-made emissions from burning fossil fuels have escalated to enormous levels.

Our species’ carbon footprint is so huge that we are influencing the evolution of our planet to such an extent that global warming may in the next decades become irreversible.

Our mission is to act fast. In Carbonica we believe that the only way to combat global warming is by combining a low-carbon economy with a programme of managed forestry on an unprecedented scale. We believe that by restoring vast areas of rainforest it is possible to recapture carbon from the atmosphere at a significant rate.

Only if our effort is on a sufficiently large scale, can we make a difference and reverse global warming, by recapturing the billions of tonnes of carbon that are already in the atmosphere. Our mission is to plant trees and fund multi-story cropping and programmes of tropical forest restoration and preservation on as large a scale as possible.

The reality of modern life is that everything has a carbon footprint.

This is why it is important to offset it.

In Carbonica we don’t believe in emission credits or permissible levels of carbon emissions.

We believe that the only acceptable level of emissions is zero.

We also believe that trees are the only true carbon offset and Nature’s very efficient method of carbon capture.

We would like to help people like you make a difference, and with Carbonica you can become a zero footprint individual and make a positive contribution to the environment.
