The car is being blamed for most of the pollution of the world, though this is far from reality as far as many are concerned. However Budget Insurance are on hand to help make it all better with their new emissions offsetting car insurance policy.
The insurer claims that one hundred percent of the customers carbon dioxide emissions will be offset for the duration of the policy. How this will work is that a contribution will be made to projects organised by the Carbon Neutral Company, who are overseeing different eco friendly activities across the globe that are helping clean it up.
This initiative from Budget Insurance is seen by some as a practical solution to going green, recognising that the car is a much needed mode of transport in many parts of the UK, but wanting to do something to mitigate its effects on the environment.
Research from AA Insurance has found that around 22 percent of people in the UK are intending to take a holiday in Britain this year in order to cut down their costs of travel.
It appears that the rising costs in all aspects of travel are making people think about alternatives to try and reduce their expenditure. This has also driven more people to look at smaller vehicles to save money that way. There can also be insurance benefits in this, as well as better fuel economy said an AA Insurance representative.
As with all things the key is to find something that is suitable, so making sure there is enough room for people, that the engine can deliver the performance needed for regular long journeys and so on. AA Insurance see claims for all sorts of issues relating to unsuitable vehicles, so ensuring it is fit for the job it will have to do is paramount.
2 years after launching women only car insurance Sheilas Wheels are now one of the best recognised insurance companies around.
To celebrate this status Sheilas Wheels have been looking at how women shop for car insurance, finding that they actually spend more time choosing their outfit for the Christmas party than they do getting car insurance.
It appears that the average woman takes just over 2 hours searching for and then buying car insurance, no doubt helped by easy to use sites like the one at Sheilas Wheels of course. Another factor is that personal recommendations are very important to women, which can also make the whole process of getting car insurance faster.
Now when it comes to buying Christmas party outfits that is a whole different matter.
