Make the switch to EcoSendTrusted by purpose-driven organisations around the world.
Our commitment to sustainability.
Sustainability may not be your top concern when choosing an email platform.
We believe that technology should serve both people and the planet.
Every feature, every line of code, and every hour of our day is spent on making EcoSend a more sustainable business.
Optimised infrastructure
We optimise our infrastructure to use as little energy as possible.
By building with the latest “serverless” technologies, we utilise energy only when you need us, and shut off infrastructure when you don't.
Renewable energy
We run on one of the most energy efficient cloud providers, Amazon Web Services (AWS).
In 2022, the electricity consumed in the U.S. East (Northern Virginia) region, where the majority of our infrastructure is based, was attributable to 100% renewable energy.
Transparent reporting
Our free email campaign carbon calculator gives you insights into the climate impact of your email marketing campaigns.
As a customer, EcoSend shows your estimated carbon footprint, and transparent metrics for our automated offsetting programs.
Automatic carbon offsetting
We work with many partners including TreeApp and Tree-Nation to automatically offset the estimate carbon emissions of your campaigns.
Your EcoSend account gives you visibility into these estimates, their calculations, and more information about all climate efforts.
Why sustainability matters in email marketing.
Email marketing has an environmental impact that often goes unnoticed.
Much like everything we do online, every email sent requires energy for processing, transmission, and storage.
With billions of emails sent daily, the cumulative environmental impact adds up into a problem worth tackling.
At EcoSend, we're committed to making email marketing a force for good — for your business, your customers, and for the planet.
The environmental impact of email.
Understanding how email has a carbon footprint.
Email marketing contributes to carbon emissions through:
- Data center energy consumption: Servers require significant electricity for processing and cooling.
- Network infrastructure: Data transmission across global networks consumes energy.
- Storage requirements: Long-term email storage requires ongoing energy use.
- Device energy: Recipients' devices consume energy to receive and display emails.
The scale of the problem.
Consider these statistics:
- Over 350 billion emails are sent daily worldwide.
- Each email can generate between 0.3 to 50 grams of CO2 equivalent.
- Email storage accounts for significant data center energy consumption.
- Spam and unwanted emails waste energy and resources.
