We clean up after ourselves
E-commerce deliveries have a carbon footprint. That’s why we support leading companies that are removing carbon from the air.
Together, the participating companies have...
- removed thousands of tons of carbon from the atmosphere
- ensured carbon-neutral deliveries for more than ten million orders.
Here’s how it works: For every order we receive, a formula is used to calculate the estimated emissions from shipping. Based on these estimates, a portion of our revenue is donated to carbon-reducing companies that have been vetted by Carbon Direct scientists. These companies use this money to remove the amount of carbon generated by our shipments. The additional funds are dedicated to developing carbon-removal technologies.
Here are some of the companies eliminating emissions from our shipping.
Heirloom
Heirloom’s Direct Air Capture technology enhances the carbon mineralization process. Heirloom’s technology accelerates the rate at which natural minerals capture CO₂ rather than using energy-intensive fans to suck in air.
Remora
Remora captures CO₂ from the exhaust pipes of semi-trailers while they are moving, with the CO₂ intended for long-term storage.
Charm
Charm captures CO₂ from plant waste, converts it into a stable, carbon-rich liquid, and stores it safely underground, out of reach of wildfires and soil erosion.
