Carbon Neutral Orders

The Defining Issue of our Time

Being human means releasing planet-warming carbon emissions into the atmosphere. It happens when we take a shower, charge our phones, or let out a yawn after a long day. Just like humans release carbon pollution, so do businesses - and Gauti Galore is no exception.

 Everyday in the U.S. alone, e-commerce packages travel about the same distance as going to the moon and back ...133,000 times. Online shopping has transformed retail. Unfortunately, it’s also impacting the environment, and not for the better. Having an order conveniently delivered to your doorstep is a major contributor to climate change.

We’re on a Mission

 As Gauti Galore continues to grow, we have an increasing responsibility to commit additional resources toward our values in order to maximize the positive impact of our products. At [company name], we have long held the conviction that we can be both a great business and a great corporate citizen. In fact, we believe we cannot be one without the other.

Corporate social responsibility is cemented in Gauti Galore’s DNA because our people believe deeply in making the world a better place.

 What Gauti Galore is Doing

Starting today, we’re taking a stand and doing something about it.

 We’re becoming one of the few e-commerce brands to offset 100% of our carbon emissions from shipping. This achievement is the result of an effort to measure our global footprint in accordance with international certification standards, coupled with efforts to reach carbon neutrality.

 For every one of our amazing items that ships, we now balance it with a positive environmental impact thanks to our partner, EcoCart. The full environmental impact of getting your favorite [company] products to your door is completely neutralized.

 This initiative comes at no additional cost to our customers. It simply comes with the satisfaction of knowing that shopping at Gauti Galore means making a positive impact on the planet.

 So now you’ll know when a Gauti Galore package arrives at your door, you’ll get something you love and you’ll be proud of the fact that you’re taking a small step towards making a big change in the world.

 Huh? 

What does it mean to offset emissions?

It means that for any carbon emissions released into our atmosphere as a result of shipping items at Gauti Galore , we invest in projects that reduce carbon emissions by the same amount. It’s almost like we’re giving the planet an IOU, then immediately paying it back.

How does it work?

Now, each time someone buys an item at Gauti Galore , we will automatically purchase verified emissions reductions, more commonly known as “offsets” through our friends at EcoCart. These purchases support environmental projects, like wind and solar farms that create clean energy, or protecting trees that would otherwise be cut down so that they can continue to absorb carbon from the air. On top of it, we make sure that these projects are doing some extra good like protecting animals or supporting underserved communities.

Why is this important?

Gauti Galore has always been conscious of our impact and actively worked to lighten our carbon footprint. We believe that if we all work together towards positive change, we can make the world a cleaner, healthier place.

 What do you mean carbon neutral?

When we say we’ll be “carbon neutral” (“net zero” is another term you’ll hear), that means that we will eliminate, capture, or otherwise mitigate all of the carbon emissions we create from shipping our products to your door.

How can l participate ?

At check out, you will have the option to
carbon offset your order (typically 1-2%
of your total). The carbon offset funds are then directed to specific projects, such as
planting trees, protecting rainforests and wetlands, building wind farms, and
more. Each project is independently certified tointernationally recognized standards.

Just the Beginning

 At Gauti Galore, we are committed to slowing the effects of climate change, one order at a time.

 Carbon offsets are a starting point—an immediate way to reduce our impact. Even though this is a moment to celebrate, we think that it’d be even better if we didn’t emit any carbon in the first place. To achieve this, we’re working to develop projects in our own supply chain that will reduce our emissions directly.

The Power of Us

 Our work isn’t done for another important reason. No matter how much progress we continue to make on our own footprint, Gauti Galore’s footprint is actually quite small. The effects of climate change are magnified far beyond Gauti Galore itself.

The only way we can truly begin to reverse the effects of climate change are if everyone does their part.
