The Earthling Co.

Sustainability Story

Sustainability is a broad, overarching term. To us, sustainability involves multiple angles, including improving the way products are made and consumed, and reducing negative environmental impacts throughout a product's lifecycle. We also take into consideration the sustainability of our company's operations, and to that end have become a Climate Neutral Certified business. We are constantly weighing multiple factors when it comes to sustainability — for example, cutting out manufacturing processes and ingredients that are toxic to humans and the environment, considering the shipping weight of glass vs. aluminum, evaluating the recyclability of our packaging choices, reducing the use of virgin materials, and choosing non-petroleum-based inks for our labels. It's a complex web of decisions, but taking the time and money to do our research is extremely important to us.

What is Climate Neutrality

A state in which human activities result in no net effect on the climate system. Requires balancing of residual greenhouse gas emissions with reductions or removals. All Climate Neutral Certified brands must meet climate neutrality standards for measuring, offsetting, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions from making and delivering products and services.

This certification covers business activities and operations for the following brands :

01 Measure

The Earthling Co. measured Scope 1, 2 and 3 cradle-to-customer emissions following categories and approaches established in the Climate Neutral standards.

GHG Scope 1

GHG Protocol Scope 1

Emissions from energy used in buildings, fleets, and equipment.

0 tCO2e

GHG Scope 3

GHG Protocol Scope 3

Emissions from raw materials, manufacturing, shipping, air travel, and other activities in the supply chain.

439 tCO2e

Total Emissions

Total Carbon Emissions

The sum of Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions.

439 tCO2e

02 Offset

The Earthling Co. invested in projects outside of their value chain to compensate for all of their measured carbon emissions. This step supports their climate neutrality designation, and enables The Earthling Co. to take responsibility for historical emissions that can’t be reduced.

Total Investment in Carbon Credits

$5,300.80

The Earthling Co.'s credits came from:

Emissions Offset

Offset equivalency

For reference, reducing a footprint by 1000 tonnes is roughly equal to removing 230 passenger vehicles from the road for a year.

03 Reduce

The Earthling Co. has set targets and identified actions to reduce their emissions from operations and their supply chain. These actions will enable The Earthling Co. to emit fewer emissions in the future.

Mid Term Targets

The Earthling Co. has committed to reducing emissions by .

This target is aligned with global trajectories to limit climate warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius.

Mid Term Targets

This target is aligned with global trajectories to limit climate warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius.

Reduction Actions

The Earthling Co. is implementing a Reduction Action Plan to reduce emissions from within its own operations and supply chain.

Current Year Reduction Actions

What We’re Reducing

We are focused on reducing emissions from upstream + downstream shipping by reducing the weight of our products.

How We'll Reduce It

We are adjusting the packaging of our products wherever possible to implement more light-weight materials. ie. aluminum + paper instead of glass.

What We’re Reducing

We plan to reduce the emissions from downstream shipping.

How We'll Reduce It

We will be relocating to a new fulfillment center in a more centralized location to decrease the mileage our customer orders must cover. We will also choose a fulfillment partner with various locations so we can ultimately have bi-coastal FC's.

In Progress Reductions

60%

What We’re Reducing

We are focused on reducing emissions from abroad shipments.

How We'll Reduce It

We will reduce the amount of products that are sourced from abroad suppliers in order to move our products closer to our customers.

100%

What We’re Reducing

We are committed to reducing the percentage of our shipments that are sent via aircraft freight.

How We'll Reduce It

We will implement an order placement system that utilizes bulk quarterly shipments, that are primarily sent via ground freight.
