On Tuesday, Lime announced a partnership with NativeEnergy that will allow it to buy renewable energy credits to charge its fleet. Since people charge most of the scooters in their homes, Lime can't completely control the company's energy consumption.

Lime will also buy carbon offsets to balance out the emissions that come from its operations and management fleet, like the trucks and other vehicles that go out to fix and replace damaged bikes and scooters.
