CARBON CREDITS WITH CARBONCLICK

There's only one thing we're more passionate about than our business… the planet! So we're making an effort to use sustainable practices in every part of our business. We've teamed up with CarbonClick, a kiwi company making it easy for people and businesses to help fight climate change.

CarbonClick looks like a green button at checkout. When a customer clicks, it adds a small contribution to their transaction, to purchase carbon offsets. These offsets balance out the carbon emissions of the purchase. CarbonClick funds forest restoration, tree planting, and renewable energy projects in NZ and around the world. We're proud to be part of the fight against climate change. We'll be making our own contributions, and changing our practices to reduce our carbon footprint. We hope you'll join us by choosing CarbonClick with your purchase.

- Where does CarbonClick source its ‘carbon credits' from?

CarbonClick source their carbon credits by working directly with landowners and reputable brokers who can give provide full end-to-end transparency on the forest and movement of credits. Their current provider of permanent New Zealand forestry credits is NZ Carbon Farming, who are leaders in this space.

The current project is the restoration of Arawera Forest, through re-planting of native trees to restore this native forest on land once used for farming to capture carbon and provide habitats for native wildlife.
