Shopify Launches Sustainability Fund

Shopify is an ecommerce platform that went public in 2015. The stock is up about 500% in the last year. The company has been an innovator and leader in enabling carbon offsets during the checkout process for online orders. Now, Shopify is taking more action to kickstart the carbon removal market.

Shopify considers four key aspects:
1. Climate benefit - project is net carbon negative
2. Scalability - long-term economics and meaningful impact
3. Market support - carbon capture sales
