Plan My Green: “Green Shipping for Less”
Keeping our environment clean is made easier by earth friendly companies who share the same goal of preserving our resources and promoting a healthy earth.
First Global Xpress (FGX) is a global shipping company that is taking a greener outlook to shipping packages. They claim they can cut the distance your shipment travels by 25% therefore reducing the carbon footprint of shipping your package by 30% or more. FGX uses direct commercial airlines to remove the need for hauling packages through the central hubs of the big shipping companies like FedEx, DHL, or UPS.
FGX has a nice carbon calculator to show just how big the carbon footprint is for shipping a particular package.
