CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Carolina Postal Credit Union has taken the hybrid Loan discount to new heights by offering to plant a tree.
For every member that gets a CPCU loan for a hybrid/alternative fuel vehicle, Carolina Postal will purchase a “Gift of Green” from BeGreenNow of Green Mountain Energy. For each “Gift of Green” a tree is planted in Kootenai National Forest.
BeGreenNow is partnering with American Forests to plant trees in the once-majestic Kootenai National Forest in Montana. For this reforestation project, Ponderosa Pine trees are being planted to help the forest recover from large forest fires in 2000. In addition to absorbing CO2, the new trees will also help restore the wildlife habitat that was destroyed, and return the forest to its former glory.
It is touted as a win-win for everyone CPCU members enjoy a 1% discount on hybrid loans while doing something good for the environment.
