Carbon-neutral shipping with Shopify Planet Carbon neutral shipping on all orders

 

In today's fast-paced world of e-commerce, the convenience of online shopping has undeniably transformed the retail landscape. However, with this convenience comes a significant carbon footprint caused by the transportation and delivery of goods. At FABA, we believe in taking responsibility for our impact on the environment. That's why we have made a commitment to support cutting-edge companies that actively remove carbon from the air. Through our partnership with these innovative organizations, we strive to neutralize the carbon emissions associated with our deliveries and promote a sustainable future.

The Carbon Neutral Solution

E-commerce deliveries contribute to carbon emissions, which have a detrimental effect on the environment. To counteract this impact, FABA has implemented a carbon neutral solution for our shipping processes. For every order we receive, a formula is used to calculate the estimated shipping emissions. Based on these calculations, a portion of our revenue is allocated to carbon removal companies that have been rigorously vetted by scientists from Carbon Direct, a leading authority in carbon reduction. These companies utilize the funds to remove the equivalent amount of carbon that our shipments have generated. Additionally, any surplus funds are directed towards the advancement of carbon removal technologies.

By implementing sustainable land management practices, such as rotational grazing and regenerative agriculture, Grassroots Carbon assists ranchers in maximizing carbon sequestration potential. Through their collaborative efforts, they empower ranchers to become environmental stewards while simultaneously supporting the growth of a carbon-neutral future.
