JK on Environment

VW Campers may not be the most economical cars in the world, but, ironically, they are better for the environment than a new car, according to research from New Scientist.

According to New Scientist,  "It is better to run ‘old bangers’ for longer, rather than buying new fuel-efficient cars.” It is widely known that it takes more energy to make a car, starting from raw materials, than it consumes in fuel in its lifetime. New Scientist said that you can drive an old car for something like 140,000 miles before it’s used up the same amount of energy as it takes to produce a new car.

Here at Just Kampers, we take our environmental responsibilities very seriously.

We recycle all of our cardboard into a bubble wrap replacement and, wherever possible, we use recyclable, sustainable paper for our catalogues.  If you come to visit us, you’ll sample our Fairtrade tea and coffee.
