How to make climate-friendly choices when shopping online
There's clearly an appetite for shopping sustainably online. But it can be overwhelming to figure out how to find the certifications and companies that are actually making a difference. Certification experts say brands that are serious about sustainability should be transparent, meet third-party standards and quantify their environmental impact. Large e-commerce websites may highlight the certifications with special icons, hyperlinks to certification programs or written descriptions. Retail websites such as Amazon, Walmart and Target have set emissions benchmarks and other climate-related targets for their suppliers and list their own companywide sustainability goals.
