Harmful carbon emissions are released into our atmosphere every time a business produces and ships goods to consumers. When you share your reviews on Thingtesting, you play a part in reducing the environmental impact of shopping online by helping others buy better (not more).
We’ve plotted headquarters for all brands on Thingtesting because shipping takes an environmental toll of its own.
Explore the mapSome brands might say that they're environmentally-friendly but, the truth is, these claims require a lot more explanation (and evidence).
To help you explore brands keeping their impact in mind, we've asked them to submit their certifications. You can find them through our Brand Impact filters.

Read more about Climate Neutral Certified, Carbon Neutral via CarbonFund, Carbon Neutral via Pachama, Climate Neutral via ClimatePartner and Carbon Neutral via EcoCart.
Our cruelty-free filter includes brands that don't test their products on animals and/or do not contain animal products or byproducts. Read more about nonprofit Leaping Bunny, and vegan certification organizations The Vegan Society, Certified Vegan by Vegan.org and PETA-approved Vegan.

On individual brand pages, you can also see which brands have other sustainability and quality-control certifications such as FSC Certified Packaging, GOTS, ISO Standards and OEKO-TEX that verify that they’re meeting 3rd party-defined standards.
