If you're looking for carbon neutral car insurance, here are a couple of promising places to start...
In the not too distant future, carbon neutral car insurance could become the norm, but in the meantime it's a relatively niche market, with only a few companies specialising. A couple of the well established companies are also looking to provide a service in this area, and in 2006
More Than was the first of the big names to become carbon neutral.
Environmental implications aside, ibuyeco offers an extremely competitive saving of £154 if you take out one of their carbon neutral car insurance policies. Other benefits include emergency assistance 24 hours a day, all year round, as well as claims and repairs that are guaranteed for 3 years. Additionally new customers are entitled to window glass cover (£50 excess) and a guaranteed courtesy car for 7 days minimum (t/c apply).
Returning to the carbon-neutral issue in hand;
Ibuyeco will calculate cost of your CO2 emissions and contribute the extra cost to carbon neutral projects on your behalf. In other words, for each kilogramme of CO2 produced by your car, you'll also pay for 1Kg to be saved by a climate friendly project. The user-friendly website has oodles of information about all things environmental so you can start to feel a little less guilty when you have to get in the car.
Another company that focuses on the ethical side of life is
