Turn your impact into support for local climate projects
Using CO2 measurements from the Carbon Meter, we invest in climate projects to offset the footprint of our browser and make an impact as a community.
The Internet’s invisible footprint
Digital technology and the internet are responsible for more global greenhouse gas emissions than the entire aviation industry. This “digital carbon footprint” might not have a physical form, but its environmental impact is massive.
Switch to a carbon-neutral browser
As your browser, we’re your access point to the internet. That makes us part of the pipeline causing hidden digital emissions. We decided to do something about that.
Carbon-neutral browsing isn't just another feature. It’s part of our promise to help you reimagine what browsers can do—for you and the planet.
Measure your carbon footprint
The Carbon Meter shows how much CO2 your apps, extensions, and browsing have produced when using them in Shift.
The Great Bear Forest Carbon Project
This project protects millions of hectares of old-growth rainforest, reduces carbon emissions, and supports Indigenous-led stewardship. Proceeds from carbon credits fund conservation and community development in local First Nations.
Advancing Low Carbon Cement
By replacing traditional cement with smarter alternatives (natural pozzolan, fly ash, and bottom ash), this carbon-capture cement gives new life to industrial by-products, supporting a circular economy and greener construction.
