Within our delivery network in Germany, we have introduced numerous alternative drive vehicles into our fleet, and over 18,000 mail carriers rely on their bicycles day in and day out. As of 2009, buildings and facilities in Germany under our direct control have been using 100 % green electricity. And we continue to invest in greater energy efficiency for our facilities. This has reduced the ecological footprint of our business operations. Still: With 65 million letter mail items and three million parcels to deliver daily, we cannot avoid emissions entirely. But with our GOGREEN services we make it possible for our customers to offset the emissions that result from the transport and handling of their mail and parcel items. To achieve this we invest in officially recognized climate protection projects. Services for Private Customers Services for business customers Since July 2011, emissions generated from the delivery of parcels within Germany have been automatically offset for our private customers – at no extra cost. For international deliveries of Päckchen and Paket items, customers can opt for climate neutral shipping for a small fee through DHL Online Franking*. Private customers can also go climate neutral with individual letter mail items. Customers can go to our eFiliale* online shop to purchase GOGREEN stickers that are backed by our investments in climate protection projects. Even our electronic E-POSTBRIEF* service is climate friendly. Although the computers and servers required for email consume electricity and generate carbon emissions, we minimize these emissions through our use of green electricity. And for regular delivery of E-POSTBRIEF items, we automatically offset greenhouse gas emissions for our private customers – again at no extra cost. * Please note that these sites are available in German only Our Products Carbon Reports Green Optimization Carbon Neutral Green Contract Logistics Working together to create tailored solutions Find out more Green Express Shipments Full CO2 offsetting for shipments Find out more Contact Center DHL Express DHL Parcel & eCommerce DHL Global Forwarding DHL Freight DHL Supply Chain About Us Partnerships Company Portrait Green Solutions Innovation Logistics Insights Sector Overview Corporate Responsibility Social Media Facebook YouTube Fraud Awareness Official Logistics Partner SitemapAccessibilityLegal NoticeTerms of UsePrivacy NoticeUsing DHL WebsitesDispute Resolution 2016 © DHL International GmbH.
