Pickler's environmental impact reports show your packaging's carbon footprint and its equivalencies.

These equivalencies are CO2-eq emissions translated into concrete terms you can understand. The goal is to make communication about the product footprint easier for Pickler users and their customers/audiences.

How do we calculate these equivalencies?

Pickler applies The Greenhouse Gas Equivalencies Calculator from the United States Environmental Protection Agency to calculate the CO2-eq equivalencies.

Read their calculation rules here.
