Estimate delivery emissions
Planet considers package weight, distance and transport type. It uses tracking data when available and estimates where shipment information is missing.

Our Climate Commitment
Shipping parts has a carbon footprint. We believe the way we address it should be clear.

The process
How Shopify Planet works
From a shipping estimate to support for carbon removal, the process has two parts.
Support carbon removal
Planet directs funding to projects designed to remove and store CO₂. The removal methods and projects can vary by plan.
Where funding can go
Two paths to carbon removal
Shopify Planet may support nature-based work and emerging removal technologies. The mix depends on the plan.
Nature-based removal
Programs can support land management and reforestation that store carbon in soil and vegetation.
Emerging methods
Some plans also support technologies designed to remove CO₂ and store it for longer periods.
Straight answers
Common questions
Clear information about the shipping estimate and carbon removal.
Does carbon removal mean the delivery produces no emissions?
No. A shipment still creates emissions. Carbon removal funds a separate process intended to take CO₂ out of the atmosphere.
How does Planet estimate shipping CO₂?
Shopify uses shipment weight, distance and transport type. Tracking data improves the estimate; when it is unavailable, Planet uses modeled information and an uncertainty allowance.
