  That's a really interesting product/website. I just looked at: https://lowimpact.organicbasics.com/eur/collections/all-mens-products https://lowimpact.organicbasics.com/eur/collections/all-mens... You have to click on the images to actually see the real clothes you'd like to buy. I understand green/eco but I wonder who would ever use a website like this to buy any kind of (physical) goods? It kills entirely the UX and obviously it saves the company money in terms of cpu/memory/bandwidth used. What about the costs of me having to go back and forth to see all the items one by one, therefore triggering more pages views? What about the mobile experience?

  Thanks, that's a very interesting resource. I browsed around for about 5 minutes and apparently saved 153.74g. A Dutch person's average yearly emissions mount to about 9 metric tonnes. Very.. very roughly that's 15% of my hourly emissions. Considering I'd be very unlikely to order from a website like this, just imagine what we're saving on logistics in addition to that! :) Joking aside, the impact is infinitely larger than I had expected. It could also be that my quick math is off.. I'll have to check later.
