Shell Go+ carbon neutral fuel
Discussion
Apparently for every 5 fill ups they will plant a tree. Has anyone done the numbers to see if this stacks up scientifically?
Currently have offset gas and renewable electricity provider for home, the track car guzzles Shell V-Power also, but would be tempted to change fill up location for the daily if it holds up to scrutiny.

Next they will dream up some fanciful way to appeal to vegans, eco warriors, Pride or whatever fad is currently the fashion.
It's all about adapting their sales strategy to patronise the gullible.
Would be more impressed if they paid staff more & senior management took a pay cut donating the difference to planting a tree or 2 million.
This is the heart of my question. Would I be better off sending the 2-3 quid I save from going to supermarket pump to some kind of carbon charity... Or do shells numbers actually stack up.t to appeal to the tree huggers (pun intended).Next they will dream up some fanciful way to appeal to vegans, eco warriors, Pride or whatever fad is currently the fashion.
