The Federal Minister for the Environment and Water the Honorable Malcolm Turnbull MP has commended Wilson National for becoming the first home loan lender in Queensland to become carbon neutral and to offer green home loans. Wilson National Home Loans have undergone a strict audit conducted by the Carbon Reduction Institute of Australia, to ensure the business is carbon neutral today, and into the future. This means all Wilson National home loans are green home loans. Wilson National Home Loans Managing Director Geoff Wilson says, "This is a significant milestone for our growing business. Becoming carbon neutral and offering green home loans is about adopting best practice and giving customer's choice. And best of all our rates in 2007 are just as competitive as our homes loans that were listed in Australia's Best Home Loans 2006 by Your Mortgage Magazine." "There are so many benefits by offering green home loans""We are absolutely thrilled The Federal Minister for the Environment and Water Mr Malcolm Turnbull MP sent a message from Canberra. We encourage all businesses to become carbon neutral, climate change is something that will continue to effect everyone, and is one of the best ways we can give back to the community," Geoff adds. By Wilson National offering green home loans, which are 100% carbon neutral, is the equivalent of taking 21.2 cars off the M1 motorway or turning off 3,600 sixty watt light globes for one day. There are three major outcomes from becoming carbon neutral, it gives customers the choice of a green home loan and it is the ultimate way to give back to the community. Furthermore, it adds value to the brokers and 'white label' customers, that use Wilson National Home Loans - because all Wilson National Home Loans carry the Pre-Green logoand are 100% carbon neutral. Wilson National Home Loans Communications Director Gordon Watson says, "There are so many benefits from offering green home loans. From a communications perspective, it allows our business to be a market leader, and position the company successfully in a number of niche markets." Becoming carbon neutral involved an extensive carbon audit by the nationally recognised Carbon Reduction Institute (CRI). CRI assist businesses reduce and offset their carbon emissions to achieve a carbon neutral status.
