EcoCart
What is EcoCart?
- EcoCart is an optional, but simple way to donate to a great cause that helps reduce climate change all over the world. For example, it helps preserve forests, which, in turn, remove greenhouse gas emissions from the atmosphere. When you contribute to EcoCart, your donation goes to the Tri-City Forest Project, which means that you help prevent conversion of forests for alternative uses, thereby protecting native lands and wildlife. Adept Cosmetics® will match your donation and our donation will go to the Water Purification Project in Khum Longvek, Cambodia which provides locally made ceramic water purifiers to over 1 million Cambodians by filtering water instead of boiling it.
You release carbon. We put it back.
One person’s annual carbon emissions are equivalent to…
776 trees
absorbing CO2
3.7 cars
on the road
20,000 lbs
of coal burned
If that sounds like a lot — it is
Being human means releasing planet-warming emissions into the atmosphere. It happens when we take a shower, charge our phone, or let out a yawn after a long day.
EcoCart exists to empower customers to make their ecommerce orders carbon neutral, but anyone can make a difference by supporting our carefully selected carbon offset projects.

What we look for
Legitimacy
With a rigorous verification process, we scour the globe for projects that are legitimately reducing carbon pollution. We confirm the science and financials, making sure each project meets the toughest requirements of the world’s major carbon standards – including the United Nations.
Impact
By working closely with project developers, we ensure that each program is stable, sound, and capable of doing good for both people and the planet. EcoCart projects don’t just slow climate change, but also have a positive impact on local communities and animal habitats.
Traceability
We can’t depend on the promise to do good. We need to see it in action. By carefully tracking the emissions reductions of each project and sharing that information with our customers, we give the EcoCart community greater certainty that what they see is what they get.
