ATLANTA, GA — United Parcel Service is expanding its carbon neutral shipping program to 35 countries and territories in Europe, Asia and the Americas following the launch of the service last fall in the United States.
Under the program, shippers in the U.S. can offset the carbon footprint of their packages by paying a small fee that covers cost of the offsets, emissions calculation and administration: Five cents for a ground package, 20 cents for an air package and 75 cents for an international package.
