Our Environmental Impact Commitments

What environmental impact does each purchase create?

Every product purchased contributes to two measurable environmental actions: planting one mangrove tree and removing five plastic bottles from ocean waste through our partnership with GoodAPI (Sprout). These quantified contributions directly support ecosystem restoration, marine habitat recovery, and carbon capture initiatives.

How much plastic waste does each order remove from oceans?

Each product purchase removes exactly 5 plastic bottles worth of waste from ocean environments. This targeted ocean clean-up prevents microplastics from entering marine food chains, protects wildlife from ingestion hazards, and supports coral reef ecosystem health.

How many trees get planted per purchase?

One mangrove tree is planted for every product purchased. Mangrove trees capture up to four times more carbon than tropical rainforests while providing critical coastal protection against erosion and storm damage.

Is our shipping carbon neutral for every order?

Yes - every order ships completely carbon neutral through Shopify Planet contributions. We automatically calculate and offset 100% of shipping emissions for each order, ensuring zero additional carbon footprint from delivery.

Why do we focus on mangrove trees specifically?

Mangrove forests rank among Earth's most effective natural carbon storage systems, capturing atmospheric CO2 while creating essential breeding habitats for marine species. These trees also provide natural coastal barriers that protect communities from flooding and storm surges.

How does removing 5 bottles per purchase make a difference?

Ocean plastic waste persists for centuries in marine environments, breaking down into harmful microplastics that contaminate the entire food chain. Removing 5 bottles per purchase prevents approximately 150 grams of plastic from reaching ocean ecosystems, supporting healthier marine biodiversity.
