Deutsche Post
Germany
Deutsche Post is a leading logistics company and provider of global distribution services, domestic mail delivery in Germany, and global delivery service through its DHL Global Mail and DHL Express businesses. Efficient transportation is an economic imperative for Deutsche Post and is a core competency. The company also recognizes the significance of climate change, and has placed strategic importance on network efficiency, technological solutions, green products and services, and rail transportation systems. For example, Deutsche Post's mail delivery service in Germany makes extensive use of bicycles (fleet of 24,000), and the company is expanding its fleet of alternative fuel vehicles in Europe, as well as testing hybrid and alternative fuel vehicles globally. The company's "climate neutral shipping solution" provides customers with an option for reducing the impact associated with shipping. CO2 emissions associated with transporting the package are calculated and offset via climate protection initiatives. Although Deutsche Post's business is based on shipping goods and documents all over the world, the company clearly understands its climate impacts, the associated ecological constraints, and the necessity of developing solutions. As Deutsche Post continues to expand its activities in the Americas, Portfolio 21 has asked the company to strengthen its internal and external environmental efforts in this region.
