RETAIL ITEM - OFFSET PAIRING FOR NEUTRAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT

摘要

Systems and methods for pairing negative and positive environmental impacts are disclosed. The system and methods include pairing negative environmental impacts from retail item production and manufacturing with positive environmental impacts from projects, resulting in retail items that are neutral with respect to environmental effects. The systems and methods offset negative environmental impact for retail items by determining a positive environmental impact associated with a project and calculating micro-units based on the amount of negative impact from each retail item. A unique identifier is assigned to each micro-unit and the micro-unit-retail unit pairing is stored. The system can be implemented via a computer system.
