Mortgage Lenders going green with a carbon neutral home loans

Mortgage Lenders Go Green by reducing and offsetting carbon emissions in home loan processing.

Are you concerned about reducing your carbon footprint?

Well now the mortgage lender industry wants you to consider reducing carbon emissions by supporting mortgage lenders who offer a carbon-neutral home loan.

Many mortgage companies are choosing to go carbon neutral, offsetting their emissions by buying carbon credits.

The mortgage lender industry has joined the march against climate change, with mortgage companies recently announcing a carbon-neutral home loan.

How you can get your mortgage business Carbon Neutral Certified.

Businesses certified as NoCO2 are carbon neutral and have accounted for their total operational emissions, as well as the emissions embodied in the products that they sell and use.

You essentially have to have your business processes audited to calculate the full extent of your carbon impact by the Carbon Reduction Institute .

Your business carbon emissions are  calculated from energy usage, waste, employee transport, as well as the emissions embodied in the computers and phones we use.”

Your business emissions would then need to be offset. This could be done by reducing  and or streamlining your business practices and then buying carbon credits in solar energy projects.

So how green is your mortgage lender? If global warming is a concern to you, maybe you should check your carbon footprint and that of your mortgage lender.
