Being carbon neutral, or simply canceling out the harm we do, feels like treading water. Instead, what if we looked at everything in terms of a simple question: Is our impact on the climate negative, neutral, or positive? So we measure and offset 110% of our carbon footprint, while also restoring ecosystems damaged by the effects of single-use paper and plastic.

Each year, we measure and offset 100% of our carbon footprint with our certification partner Climate Neutral, while striving to reduce our overall footprint, year over year. We go even further by offsetting at least 10% more carbon than we emit, which is a net positive for the climate. 

With every order of a Hitch Bottle and Cup, we fund the cleanup and removal of 100 single-use plastic water bottles from the ocean with our partner Plastic Bank, who recycles these plastics and turns them into new products. To date, we've funded the creation of 83 collection jobs in communities in Southeast Asia and the removal of over 5.1 million bottles from the ocean.

We’re not a fast fashion brand, with a whole new bottle to buy each season. Instead, we designed the Hitch Bottle and Cup to live longer by being modular. Need to change a part or want to change colors? Instead of having to buy a whole new Bottle and Cup, just replace the parts you need.
