With GreenBagTag you offset your climate impact when you travel. Through our cooperation with the CarbonNeutral Company (one of the world's largest and oldest companies in the environment sector), we make your travel climate neutral. Trough environmental projects carbon dioxide emissions are reduced with the same amount as the value of your tag. You can choose to reduce as much as or more/less emission as your travel creates.
The GreenBagTag contains two features: luggage protection and climate compensation. The climate compensation will go to the Carbon Neutral certified carbon offset projects.
All projects are certified in accordance with The CarbonNeutral protocol. Carbon Neutral is verified by the world-leading audit firm PricewaterhouseCoopers, and has long experience of working with carbon offset projects.
GreenBagTag climate compensation goes direct to The Carbon Neutral Company’s renewable energy projects. More information on current projects can be found here.
GreenBagTag is a simple solution to a worldwide problem and gives you the possibility to make a visible statement.
GreenBagTag is available in three levels, depending on how frequently you travel.
- Level 1 Light green tag - Contains one year luggage protection compensation of 0.8 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions. This corresponds to approximately one return trip New York-Las Vegas or one return trip London-Istanbul.
- Level 2 Medium green tag - Contains one year luggage protection compensation of 2.7 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions. This corresponds to approximately one return trip New York- Beijing or one return trip London-Buenos Aires
- Level 3 Dark green tag - Contains one year luggage protection compensation for at least 6 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions. This tag is intended for frequent fliers and can be filled with any number of tonnes cabon offset
The carbon offset is purchased at market value and therefore the price of the tag may vary as the tag contains a fixed amount of carbon dioxide offset. You can always add more compensation when and if you want. And it is upp to you to add new compensation when you renew the tag once a year.

Forget labels that fall off, paper tags that disappear. GreenBagTag is made of metal and fitted with a strong steel wire that fixes it securely to your luggage.
Each GreenBagTag has a unique serial number that allows baggage to be traced wherever it is located. No need to specify your name or address on the tag. If your luggage disappears, the finder contacts Green Bag Tag who will notify you directly. No matter where in the world you are.
When you buy a Green Bag Tag, you get at the same time, access to our website and our secure database. A database that also is used by the world's leading airlines. Before you travel, you register your contact information and your itinerary on our website (which is open around the clock).
You can change/update your details at anytime without charge and all information is protected in a secured database.
GreenBagTag comes with a lifetime guarantee and works throughout the world, 24 hours a day.
More than 6, 2 million bags came astray in Europe in 2007. Read the frightening report from the AUC (Air Transport Users Council)

One Nature Portfolio
One Nature Portfolio
This portfolio is of Verifi ed Emission Reductions (VERs) from 100% renewable energy projects – not only solar, wind and hydro but also biomass and re-use of waste products like biogas. Renewables can be relatively expensive to set up and maintain compared to fossil fuels which are (currently) plentiful and traditionally relied upon by the industry and infrastructure developers. Carbon fi nance helps to change the equation: by selling the CO2 reductions, project developers realise a new revenue stream which makes renewable projects more viable and price competitive.
