Green Globe International Chief Operating Officer Bradley Cox said, "This is a timely partnership given the U.S. administration's official declaration on the imminent dangers of greenhouse gases (GHG) and the government's mobilization to drastically reduce these emissions.
"Ship and Shore's Green Energy Industrial Solutions will provide Green Globe clients with expertise on making significant reductions in GHG emissions, while lowing energy consumption. Furthermore, Green Globe clients who choose to reduce GHG may qualify for significant financial subsidies and, in some cases, be able to produce credits under current carbon trading regimes," he added.
Green Globe International will work with Ship & Shore Environmental and businesses referred by the company to introduce Green Globe's web-based Index and Certification tools. These industry leading online tools rank and certify the sustainability of business as well as measure their environmental performance over time.
In addition, Green Globe International will seek to recommend Ship & Shore Environmental's technologies to reduce greenhouse gases and carry out surveys to estimate energy savings to existing and future customers looking to achieve efficiency gains. Ship & Shore Environmental, Inc. also offers technical expertise that may be delivered as consultancies under green business programs planned for U.S. cities as well as international tourism destinations.
The Green Globe brand and program, which traces its roots back to the United Nations Rio de Janeiro Earth Summit in 1992, where 182 Heads of State endorsed the Agenda 21 principles of Sustainable Development, has primarily been used in the travel and tourism industry but is now being expanded to include a growing number of environmentally responsible businesses in a variety of market sectors. The Green Globe brand is an ideal symbol for the world's increasing awareness of environmental responsibility and response to global climate change.
Current Green Globe programs managed by the company and its affiliates include the world leading certification program () and the Green Globe Index tool, which allows clients to calculate their CO2e footprint, the financial cost of that CO2e, and to track their performance of energy and water consumption and non-recyclable waste production.
