In a world where online shopping is more convenient than ever, the environmental impact of shipping is something we can't ignore. Every package delivered comes with a carbon footprint — from transportation emissions to packaging materials. That's why at The Earthling Co., we're committed to being carbon-neutral — but what does that actually mean?
What Is Carbon Neutral Shipping?
Carbon-neutral shipping means that for every order we ship, we offset the carbon emissions created during the shipping process by investing in environmental projects that reduce or remove an equivalent amount of carbon from the atmosphere.
These projects can include:
-
Reforestation efforts that absorb carbon dioxide through tree planting.
-
Renewable energy projects like wind or solar farms.
-
Methane capture programs that prevent harmful greenhouse gases from entering the atmosphere.
By balancing out emissions with these types of initiatives, the result is a net-zero impact on the environment from shipping-related carbon emissions.
How The Earthling Co. Offsets Carbon Emissions
Sustainability is at the core of everything we do — and that includes how your orders make their way to your doorstep. We are Climate Neutral Certified and partner with trusted carbon offset organizations to calculate the emissions from each shipment and invest in certified climate projects to neutralize the environmental impact.
To date, our community has helped offset over 6,947,600 pounds of carbon emissions — contributing to projects that support clean energy, forest preservation, and more.
How You Can Support Carbon Neutral Shipping
Every time you place an order with The Earthling Co., you're automatically supporting carbon-neutral shipping. But there are even more ways you can help minimize your carbon footprint:
-
Bundle your orders to reduce the number of shipments.
-
Choose slower shipping options when possible (they often have a lower carbon impact).
-
