NY Luxury Fleet Filling Need for Green

New York, NY, October 04, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Partners Executive Transportation is driving towards a more sustainable future. The New York luxury ground transportation provider is undertaking a comprehensive approach to reducing the environmental footprint of all aspects of their business. Through their partnership with Green Ride Global – a firm that creates and implements environmental sustainability programs for the ground transportation industry – Partners Executive Transportation has developed a corporate Environmental Policy that addresses the immediate and long-term impacts of their carbon footprint and has qualified them for inclusion in the US EPA Climate Leaders program.

Partners Executive Transportation has set an aggressive Greenhouse Gas (GHG) reduction goal of 20% over the next five to 10 years. “This is a formidable undertaking, and we are ready for the challenge,” says Sergio A. Sanchez, Executive Vice President of Partners Executive Transportation, “our corporate clients will expect nothing less. As environmental concerns continue to permeate corporate and procurement considerations, our environmental program will become more and more valuable to the Fortune 1000s that depend on suppliers to help them achieve their own GHG reduction goals,” Continues Sanchez.

The company’s GHG reduction plan focuses on reductions in fuel consumption, electricity use, waste diversion, employee travel, and evaluating the latest in vehicle and alternative fuel technology.

Partners Executive Transportation has been on the Green Ride Global program since March of this year and is the first Official Green Ride Global Member in New York.
