VOLVO'S fleet team will be driving round the UK in a carbon neutral fashion after signing a tree planting agreement with Future Forests.

Future Forests will plant trees to offset the global warming impact of the 175,000 miles travelled by Volvo's eight strong corporate sales team every year. About 80 trees have already been planted at Barabhaig, on the Isle of Skye. Ian Rendle, Volvo's corporate sales manager, said: 'This initiative is a practical way to reinforce Volvo's strong environmental brand values'.
