Regular readers of this Blog will recall that in late autumn, Allez-Français advised that for the end of 2009 & for the whole of 2010 we decided that we will try to off-set the carbon footprint of clients viewing through us, by planting a tree* for each client visiting and viewing a selection of property, which will over time absorb their carbon dioxide emissions.

We would like to think of ourselves as ground-breakers with this idea. Hopefully, clients will decide to view with an agency trying to something for the environment, rather than one just offering a standard service, that we are confident that we will exceed in any case!
This weekend saw the annual tree planting event in our village, and in our own way, we were able to supplement the number of trees planted in the village. Hopefully next year will be even better and there will be even more trees to plant. We will perhaps invite some of the new owners to attend the event, and even plant their own tree.
The mayor, of our village, Mme Bouchet, is aware of our initiative, and made a point of thanking us for the contribution. I personally would like to thank Jackie & John Warner, who purchased via ourselves several years ago. They sold last year, and they very kindly made a contribution towards our effort. That was a super gesture, and very much appreciated.

At Allez-Français we are like to consider that we are taking steps to help reduce our impact on our surroundings and create a more environmentally friendly future.
