    That would be something we want to supply absolutely, do you have these in standard sizes priced up suitable for an e-commerce online offering? With good imagery and all specs?

    They are made to order. There is a manufacturing company that makes these. Do you think we will take ownership of the carbon created by another company - Don't be daft.

    So we don't have a warehouse, our manufacturers products are made to order. We take ownership once its despatched from them. As for after work... We have to be realistic. As a small business owner I work over 80 hours, sometimes over 100 hours a week. This just is not feasible. Its about...

    Id still argue that would cover the order. I mean we are debating something mostly unprovable however, but its interesting non the less. What would a HGV's emissions be, around 800g/km? Average journey of around 150km maybe, that's around 120kg of CO2. It makes for interesting thinking, and...

    You're right the wider company will produce more CO2, the aim here is not to use this as a full project to become CO2 neutral. Its a start. However I think when we talk about packaging and delivery and that we plant 5 trees for each order, given that one tree can absorb around 20-30kg of CO2...

    I wasn't expecting to recommend an eco/sustainable service that would be genuinely useful for e-commerce sites, to only try and get berated for my own. You are comparing apples to oranges between your service website and my large e-commerce store.

    The website is as optimised as possible so far, many you see with page load times and TTFB that are super quick are using masking techniques and masking caches. I openly put the website carbon widget on there for transparency, its not so you can sit there and go "oh your website is dirty", its...

    Just at the point with my company now where I have the time to attend a few of these in my local area. Has anyone experienced these, were they helpful, what tips do you have?

    At HSE Store we have joined up with a company called Ecologi. They help with CO2 reduction and carbon offset projects. One of the key benefits for e-commerce is that we have implemented automations so that when a customer places an order with us, we fund the planting of 5 trees around the...

    UK Manufacturer of Office Furniture

    Office furniture is the one area of my e-commerce business that we don't have a supplier/manufacturer for, it would be great to partner up and become a distributor for an office furniture manufacturer based in the UK
