What is "Green Package Protection"?
Route covers the cost to neutralize shipping emissions when you add "Green Package Protection" at checkout. "Green Package Protection" shipping includes package protection at the same cost as before, with the additional benefit of shipping emissions that are offset. By adding Green Package Protection to your cart, you're automatically taking instant climate action — no donation required.
How does Green Package Protection work?
Route has partnered with Patch, a carbon credit marketplace, to facilitate the purchase of carbon credits to neutralize your emissions. Carbon credits represent a certified unit of carbon removal or avoidance delivered by environmental projects that can be purchased to naturally remove carbon from the air. Patch is a high-integrity carbon removal project that is vetted and certified by organizations like Gold Standard, Verra, Climate Action Reserve, and The American Carbon Registry.
