Did you know that for a small per package fee (as little as 5 cents), you can use UPS carbon neutral to easily offset the carbon dioxide emissions generated by the transportation of your shipment. Just select the carbon neutral option before paying when creating shipments online or ask a clerk about it at your local UPS store.
