@mariah_shotts1 After each has been verified by all six major carbon standards, we then go through and hand-select all our projects based on those that also have a strong element of social good. We additionally try to focus on projects that are as geographically diverse as possible, so that we can be offsetting the harmful carbon as close to the point of impact as humanly possible.

@proton_inc Thanks Ryan! Yes, we are similar to Honey where we give you rewards for shopping online, but with the added bonus of offsetting the environmental impact of your orders.

@lissett_evanzia Right now we have 3 projects we work with that protects forests, provides clean water, and creates wind energy. We scoured the globe to find 3 geographically diverse and highly impactful projects that not only meet our high verification standards, but also do some social good like helping underserved communities and protecting wildlife.

Excited to use this for all orders from now on! Just wondering, how are the EcoPoints calculated?

@maria_miao Thanks Maria! You’ll often see EcoPoints multipliers next to stores that indicate you’ll earn 2x or 3x the typical amount of EcoPoints when shopping at that store. Without an EcoPoints multiplier, $1 spent = 10 EcoPoints

What an awesome idea! Just wondering, what factors go into calculating the carbon offsets?

@jackson_smith3 Good question! Our algorithm uses the unique characteristics of each order, including product type, shipping distance, and item weight to estimate the shipping emissions created by that order. Since each store uses a different shipping method, we assume a standard mix of shipping transportation that includes sea, air, and truck.

@kmurlas Great question, Kyler. We have scoured the globe for carbon offset projects that are truly additive (meaning new), permanent, and without unintended consequences (i.e., creating more carbon elsewhere, like a game of Whack-a-Mole). All of our projects are independently certified to internationally recognized standards. In addition to the carbon reduction, we pride ourselves on the fact that all of our projects include an element of social good such as protecting an endangered species of animal, or creating local jobs.
