Let’s drive change for your ESG scores and for our planet
Let’s do this together
At CheckSammy, we believe in being both fiscally and environmentally sustainable. Join us in supporting planet-changing efforts to offset your carbon footprint.
This calculator estimates the amount of carbon dioxide produced by your activities.
Use the calculator to estimate the tonnes of CO2 produced by each activity, using the source, country, quantity and unit value to quantify your carbon impact. It converts energy, transporation and waste sources from your selections to estimate the tonnes of CO2 generated.
Projects with Impact
We’re being the change we want to see in the world by supporting global carbon reduction projects across Biodiversity, Nature based Solutions, Wind, and Waste to Energy.
China
Antai Waste to Energy
Capturing large quantities of waste gas produced and converting it into green electricity in China
When it comes to waste, recycling and sustainability, CheckSammy is agnostic. We’re not married to a single method or process. That flexibility gives us the freedom to find the best, most logical and common-sense solution to the traditional and novel challenges alike, spanning:
Carbon offsets
Diverting excess material, textiles and food waste from landfills
Reverse, circular, lateral and other custom logistics
We’re proud to partner with SouthPole
We look for partners as passionate about sustainability and carbon reduction as CheckSammy is. We’re proud to partner with SouthPole, a global provider of sustainability financing and developer of verified and validated emission-reduction projects.
Got questions? We've got answers
Have questions about e-waste recycling? We can help. Here are some common FAQs and answers to help you dispose of your e-waste responsibly.
One metric tonne of carbon dioxide reduction results in the creation of one carbon credit through climate action projects. These credits are tradeble on the voluntary carbon market. Purchasing carbon credits to balance unavoidable emissions is referred to as ‘offsetting.
Yes. All selected carbon offsetting projects have been accredited by international recognized standards, such as The Gold Standard and Verra.
South Pole is a social enterprise recognised by the World Economic Forum’s Schwab Foundation, is today the world’s leading climate solutions provider and carbon project developer. Since its creation in 2006, it has developed nearly 1,000 projects in over 50 countries to reduce nearly 200 million metric tonnes of CO2 emissions, and to provide social benefits to communities who are particularly vulnerable to climate change.
For all purchases, we accept Credit Card (Visa, Mastercard, Discover, American Express)
Yes. A certificate verifying the amount of CO2 you compensated will be issued once the payment process is complete. Your purchase is also confirmed via email.
Carbon offsetting gives businesses and individuals the opportunity to compensate for the emissions they cannot eliminate Offsetting helps businesses show their dedication to environmental responsibility while increasing customer retention and attracting in new customers.
The price of carbon credits is determined to a large extent by supply and demand. There are a number of additional factors that impact the price of carbon credits from different climate action projects, including: The value that specific projects deliver beyond carbon – for example, some projects empower women, or have direct positive impacts on people’s lives Varying implementation costs, depending on the size and location of a project Some types of technology required to run the project are more expensive than others Carbon pricing regulations
No. To prevent duplication, the credit is retired after a purchase has been made. The buyer is responsible for the carbon reduction.
Customers can calculate CO2 emissions thanks to the extensive, and trustworthy calculator options developed by our partners, SouthPole. The source, country, quantity, and unit value are some of the parameters that determine how each calculation is generated. The seven types of calculator options we have selected are: Energy, Freight Air, Freight Rail, Freight Road, Freight Sea, Mobility, and Waste.
The carbon offset marketplace and emissions calculator is available in Canada, Mexico and the United States.
