What is their basis for the "Carbon Removed" stat?

Hilarious, should be carbon added by all this unnecessary consumption made easy by them.

Define necessary consumption. You cannot, because everyone's wants, needs, and desires are different. People will consume. If they do, behaviorally nudge them in ways to offset the harm (verified carbon offsets; not junk ones of course). Similarly to how certain cohorts loudly complain that EVs are not a component of a climate change mitigation plan. Almost 90M cars a year are sold globally; no one cares if they don't think they're the answer, they're going to get sold, so make sure the units that move are EVs.

TLDR Provide solutions not opinions, opinions are like startup ideas without executive behind them: worthless. Direct air capture is the gold standard for carbon offsets. It is expensive, hopefully it will get cheaper, but we must start somewhere until the entire supply chain electrifies.

This somehow crashed my browser. Cool interface, though. I liked the Stripe one a bit more in terms of actual stats and overall I would've liked to see more stats from both. Maybe they'll do reports after.

This is really cool, and (unlike the Stripe one) doesn't crash my browser nor does it lag on my devices.

The city facts are a nice addition, but most of the cities I search for don't have enough data despite showing up in the suggestions, which is annoying. The customization options are fun to play around with though, and especially airplane mode is a nice touch.
