$12 is equivalent to about 1,000 plastic bags. About one trillion single-use plastic bags are used annually across the globe. That’s nearly 2 million every minute. (Information based on https://www.earthday.org/fact-sheet-how-much-disposable-plastic-we-use/)

I want to offset a pair of sneakers

$5 is equivalent to about 1 pair of shoes over a lifetime. Over 24.3 billion shoes were produced in 2020 (https://www.worldfootwear.com/news/footwear-production-with-new-record-of-243-billion-pairs/5356.html)

I want to offset my car for one week
$30 USD

$30 is equivalent to using a car for one week every day. A typical passenger vehicle emits about 4.6 metric tons of carbon dioxide per year. This number can vary based on a vehicle’s fuel, fuel economy, and the number of miles driven per year. (Based on the information of https://www.epa.gov/greenvehicles/greenhouse-gas-emissions-typical-passenger-vehicle)

I want to offset a 1,000 km flight
$55 USD

$55 is equivalent to a 1,000 km flight. Taking one return flight generates more CO2 than citizens of some countries produce in a year. E.g. a return flight from London–Rome produces 234 kg CO2. The distance between London and Rome is 1,433 km (1,125.46 mi) (based on https://www.theguardian.com/environment/ng-interactive/2019/jul/19/carbon-calculator-how-taking-one-flight-emits-as-much-as-many-people-do-in-a-year and distance.to).
