CLIMATE PROTECTION
Ship and receive parcels while protecting the environment, with DHL

  1. Private Customers

As a global logistics company, we began working toward active climate protection years ago - through carbon-neutral shipping. We've set ourselves the goal of improving the Deutsche Post DHL Group's carbon efficiency by 50% by 2025. It is our mission reduce all logistic emissions to zero by 2050. It's an ambitious target - that’s why we established our own environmental protection program.

Umweltschutzprogramm GoGreen

GoGreen environmental protection program

The GoGreen environmental protection program encompasses a set of climate protection projects that offset greenhouse gas emissions arising during parcel transport.

DHL not only promises that your shipment will reach its recipient safely and securely - it also lets you make a positive contribution to climate protection.

The transport-related emissions are calculated in accordance with the GHG Protocol for Products standard.

Each year, we'll send you a certificate indicating how much carbon emissions have been saved through your shipments. It’s worth communicating to your customers, too! Let them know you are doing your part to protect the environment.
