“Vespa” means “wasp” in Italian, and the Canadian Scooter Corporation, a.k.a. Vespa Canada, has taken flight with the idea that wasps, bees, and other pollinators must survive in the wake of climate change. To that end, the company is supporting the protection of pollinator habitat through Environmental Defense.
In partnership with Environmental Defence and the Carbon Reduction Fund, Vespa will offset the estimated greenhouse gas emissions for all new Vespas, including the green-themed EnviroVespas in yellow (sun), blue (sky) and green (grass).
