How We Calculate Your Carbon Offset:
Clove calculates the carbon footprint of your purchased products through manufacturing and the shipping process.
Our calculations are based on estimates made by the EPA in 2020 and 2021. The EPA has provided data that estimates the carbon footprint per dollar of manufacturing cost for different categories of products; some categories include toys, shoes, clothes, and computers. Clove currently has over 40 different categories of products, and each Amazon product will be matched to the closest category, and calculations will be based on the closest category. Amazon also provided a 2020 report with estimates of their carbon footprint per dollar spent on their website. Based on the data provided by the EPA and by Amazon, we created formulas for each product category and used those formulas to calculate the carbon footprint.
Donations:
-Every month we automatically collect donations based on your carbon emission through Stripe.
-Select a charity and you are good to go!
-Your carbon offset donations will be tracked and available in your clove dashboard: https://dashboard.joinclove.org/pages-sign-in.html
Disclaimer:
Our calculations are an estimate, and carbon footprints of products may vary based on location and quality of manufacturing and methods of delivery. We are working to create more specific product categories, so that our carbon footprint estimates are more exact.
Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
