👣 WHAT ARE WE DOING TO REDUCE OUR CARBON FOOTPRINT?
In partnership with CoGo, we have developed a Carbon Savings Calculator to quantify the environmental savings made by you, through renting with HURR.
When you choose to rent instead of buying, you cause a POSITIVE IMPACT by reducing the amount of carbon emitted into the atmosphere. Why is carbon harmful? Excessive amounts of carbon in the atmosphere supercharge the greenhouse effect, causing the global temperature to rise. One of the ways we have chosen to help counteract this is through our tree-planting initiative displayed at checkout!
On each product page, you will also be able to see the savings made by renting compared to the environmental costs of manufacturing those same or similar items for the first time. The amount of carbon saved is shown as miles driven in a car alongside the number of trees required to offset it.
Please note, HURR doesn’t own the items rented through the platform and does not have access to item-specific data (including production techniques, manufacturing process, fabrics and dyes). The diversity of items across the platform of items, sizes, and styles required an application of averages approved by CoGo, to best estimate HURR’s environmental savings.
The CoGo algorithms and analysis across the HURR platform assume a displacement rate of a rented garment as opposed to buying it new and wearing it once.
