Sustainability
We believe that all individuals have the power to make positive change in the world and that is why hygeia is planet friendly by design;
We avoid the usage of single use plastic which is becoming a real world issue.
We avoid the unnecessary shipment of water around the world by using a concentrated powdered cleaning solution.
Despite this, Ecommerce deliveries do have a carbon footprint which is why we choose to go a step further and offset our own emissions.
We clean up after ourselves
Here's 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 and any additional funds go toward the further development of carbon removal technologies.
Together, with other participating businesses,
We have removed thousands of tonnes of carbon from the atmosphere.
