A browser should do more than connect you to the web. Discover how we’re working toward a carbon-neutral future through transparency, accountability, and action.
The climate crisis was never something we could be neutral about, not when browsers are part of the technology pipeline growing the world’s digital carbon footprint. As of 2025, our business operations and browsing in Shift are carbon-neutral.
As a Climate Action Partner with Synergy Enterprises, we’re conducting continual GHG accounting and developing a reduction strategy aligned with the highest global standards.
Verified. Traceable. Localized. We’ve launched an offset strategy through our partnerships with Carbonzero and Synergy alongside working on a reduction plan.
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.
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.
In 2025, we launched the Carbon Meter within Shift as part of our promise to help you reimagine what browsers can do—for you and the planet.
By making digital emissions visible, our goal is to raise awareness, not create guilt. Digital use isn’t going down. But we can show big browsers there’s a demand for reducing our digital carbon footprint.
2024
In 2024, we completed our second annual Greenhouse Gas Inventory (GHG), marking a significant step in our sustainability efforts. This year serves as our baseline for future carbon reduction goals.
Total Carbon Footprint: 2,272 tCO₂e
2025
In 2025, we’re taking action to mitigate our environmental impact through strategic carbon offset initiatives. In partnership with Carbonzero, we’re supporting certified projects that reduce or remove greenhouse gas emissions.
In collaboration with Synergy Enterprises, we’ve developed a set of clear, actionable targets building on the insights gathered through our annual greenhouse gas inventories.
2026
Aligning with all the groundwork we’ve done with Synergy Enterprises, we’ll start strategically cutting emissions from Shift’s operational and online footprint.
As part of our commitment to environmental transparency, our first impact report will publish our current carbon impact and outline how we can improve.
We want to support initiatives creating a meaningful and measurable environmental impact. That’s why we launched the Shift Impact Grant, a $25,000 USD annual grant to help sustainable projects get liftoff.
