How it works:
Carbon Credits
A carbon credit represents the removal or avoidance of one metric ton of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. When you place an order with a merchant offering carbon neutral shipping through Route, we calculate and offset the emissions generated by each shipment from our certified forestry projects.
Our Partnership
Route has partnered with Patch to fund certified carbon offset projects. Patch is a carbon credit marketplace that sources shares of carbon offsetting projects around the world. This enables Route to neutralize shipping emissions for each order that is placed.
