Our Positive Impact
We've teamed up with carbon-neutral projects Planet and Sprout. These efforts focus on restoring the natural environment and reducing harmful carbon emissions in our atmosphere. By shopping on Ecobriel you are being the ‘key player’ in making a positive transformation in the world. For each order received we donate to help fund innovative carbon removal projects. On top of this we also plant a tree for each purchase made. Please see below for more information on these important projects and how your contribution makes the difference.

The Trees We Plant
The trees we plant with Eden Reforestation Projects support wild life diversity, improve coastlines, provided meaningful wages to indigenous population and grow Mangrove trees which are an incredible carbon sink.
The Impact of Planting Mangroves
Mangroves are unique ecosystems found throughout a wide range in the tropics and occupying the intertidal areas of more than 120 countries.
Mangroves, and coastal wetlands in general, are globally important for the many services they provide to humans and the planet.
These services include protection against storm surges, sheltering nurseries for fish and other marine life, providing building materials, firewood, and providing critically important services to stabilizing the global climate as an important store of carbon.

Help Support Wildlife & Diversity
As forests are destroyed, wildlife species lose their natural habitat, forcing them to relocate, limiting their ability to survive.
Madagascar is one of the world’s greatest conservation priorities, with over 200 species of mammals, 100 species of lemurs, 300 species of birds, and almost 300 species of amphibians.
Around ninety percent of all wildlife in Madagascar is endemic. Our work with Eden protects these wildlife species in Madagascar by restoring their natural habitats.

Carbon Footprint Removal
Ecommerce deliveries have a carbon footprint. That's why we support cutting-edge companies that remove carbon from the air.
Together, participating businesses have…
- Removed thousands of tonnes of carbon from the atmosphere.
- Provided carbon-neutral shipping on more than ten million orders.
How It Works
For every order we receive, a formula is used to calculate the estimated shipping emissions.
Based on those estimates, a portion of our revenue goes to carbon removal companies that have been vetted by scientists from Carbon Direct.
Those companies use that money to remove however much carbon our shipments created.
Any extra funds go toward the further development of carbon removal technologies.
