Reduce the environmental impact of corporate travel
Mission Zero is a suite of user-friendly capabilities designed to help travelers make more sustainable choices and reduce corporate travel's environmental footprint.
Create a more sustainable travel program
Mission Zero helps companies identify and choose more sustainable travel options and offset hotel, flight and car rental emissions – all within the Zeno booking process. It’s an easy, accurate way to get your business travel program on a path to net zero carbon emissions.
All Zeno customers can see emission information for flights and hotels in their search results and on their booking confirmation page. For car rentals, customers can filter search results to show electric and hybrid vehicles, or set their travel policy to only show these more sustainable options.
With the BlueHalo Carbon Management Platform (CMP), there’s no need for manual calculations, and reporting is easy. Administrators can access carbon calculation and offset volume reports, as well as formal retirement certificates as proof of their company’s commitment to address travel-related emissions.
If your company opts in to the Mission Zero offset program, BlueHalo will calculate and show the offset value of selected hotels and flights on your booking confirmation page. For car rentals, you can be confident that carbon emissions will be offset in line with your company’s policy.
The environmental portfolios Mission Zero supports
Customers can choose between two high impact project portfolios that span renewable energy, forest regeneration and community-driven initiatives. Each carbon offset project is accredited with strict third-party verification standards that have rigorous rules and requirements to ensure they deliver real, long-lasting benefits for communities and their environments.

Frequently
asked questions
One carbon offset represents one metric tonne of greenhouse gas emissions reduced or removed from the atmosphere. A carbon offset is created by either removing one tonne of emissions from the atmosphere (by planting forests for example), or by preventing one tonne of emissions from reaching the atmosphere (for instance by replacing a fossil-fuel-burning power plant with a wind farm).
As planes fly, they burn fuel that releases greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere. We have calculated the emissions for each flight offered by a carrier, and as a passenger, you can offset your share of these emissions. We then pass your offset contribution to verified carbon offset projects around the world that mitigate climate change, protect wildlife and nourish communities.
The Zeno Mission Zero offset program’s investment portfolios have been tailored to business travel customers and can be invested in alongside general business operations offsets. Each Mission Zero portfolio is verified to the highest international standards and delivers measurable benefits to people and the planet.
No, the offset is managed at a corporate level. Travelers can see the carbon offset calculation when they book, along with the environmental programs that the offset portfolio is investing in.
Because trips do have to be changed or canceled sometimes, Zeno will only offset the emissions from a booking after a trip has occurred.
