Tree Planting
The leading cause of drastic (and sometimes irreversible) climate change is the accumulation of greenhouse gases, particularly Carbon Dioxide (“CO2”), in the atmosphere. Through photosynthesis, trees have an exceptional ability to help stop climate change by capturing CO2 from the air, and then using it to grow and release oxygen.
As we recognize the importance of trees to our environment, at Verte Maison, we contribute a percentage of each sale on our platform towards tree planting in partnership with non-profits around the word. Thus, by making a purchase on our platform, you not only get conscious and stylish goods, but also help make our world a better place.
Carbon Offsetting
In addition to planting trees to help reduce CO2 emissions, our team strives to ensure that each item shipped to our customers is Carbon Neutral.
We endeavor to achieve this through both emission reduction (i.e., batching shipments and leveraging lower-emission vehicles for transport) and offsetting the carbon that is produced by investing in environmental projects that are proving, scaling, and commercializing climate solutions for massive impact in the long term. With our commitment to Carbon Neutral shipping, we are trying to do our part in reducing harmful CO2 and bettering the environment.
