Harpist Mary Lattimore recorded her first album for Ghostly International, 2016's At the Dam, while traveling throughout the United States, stopping at Joshua Tree in California as well as a friend's house in Marfa, Texas. By the time she released Hundreds of Days in 2018, she had settled in Los Angeles after a lengthy stay in Philadelphia, where she had become an intrinsic part of the city's indie and experimental music scenes, as well as a residency at the Headlands Center for the Arts, located in the Bay Area. Hundreds of Days was born from this residency, and it's shaped by the memories of her past experiences as well as the hope and excitement of her new life on the West Coast. On this album, she expands her sound to incorporate keyboards, guitars, theremin, and other instruments, while keeping her majestic harp playing at the forefront. The 11-minute opener, "It Feels Like Floating," revolves around a gentle, looped harp melody, which is fleshed out by subtle layers of shimmering organ and ethereal, sighing vocals, as well as distant birdsong. The piece has a sort of melancholy swing to it, but it still sounds light, sunny, and peaceful. "Never Saw Him Again" unexpectedly adds sparse, lo-fi drum-machine beats, somewhat recalling Jefre Cantu-Ledesma's later solo work, and while Lattimore adds a drizzle of static and distortion, she doesn't go anywhere near as overboard. Harp notes are played forward and in reverse at the same time, and a layer of organ shines underneath. "Baltic Birch" is another epic, which builds upon a strange gothic Europop melody and gradually gets deeper and darker, throwing in some of Lattimore's usual twisted delay effects to create a sense of disorientation. While Lattimore's extended experiments are captivating, one of the album's most touching moments is the brief, direct "Hello from the Edge of the Earth," a simple melody that seems halfway between a heartfelt apology and an expression of deepest appreciation and gratitude. Hundreds of Days finds Lattimore gracefully adapting to her new surroundings, adding new dimensions to her sound but keeping its dreaminess and sentimentality intact. ~ Paul Simpson

Daredevil Records use The Planet app powered by Shopify to neutralize your shipping emissions and removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Daredevil Records has committed to donating the most amount of money possible from your order to offset C02 emissions.  

This includes funding innovative solutions such as direct air capture and mineralization, and a small portion of nature-based carbon removal.

These funds companies such as 44.01, Carbofex, CarbonBuilt, CarbonCure, Charm Industrial, Climeworks, DroneSeed, Grassroots Carbon, Heirloom Carbon, Loam, Noya, Pachama, Planetary, Remora, Running Tide, and Sustaera.

Carbon Removal Process

Carbon removal is the process of capturing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and then storing it.

For example, if a truck or a plane that delivers your shipment releases 1 kg of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere, and you are subscribed to the Planet app, then Shopify ensures that 1kg of CO2 is also sucked from the atmosphere and stored away using solutions and technologies in Shopify Sustainability Fund.

There is a fast-growing and evolving sector with many carbon removal technologies in different stages of development. These technologies include nature-based solutions, such as reforestation and soil carbon sequestration and more high-tech solutions, such as direct air capture and mineralization.

How Shipping Emissions Are Calculated

The Planet app combines data from our store with industry data and peer-reviewed models to estimate how much CO2 your shipments release into the environment. Because the Planet app makes sure that CO2 shipping emissions are removed entirely, all values that are used in the data models are rounded up.

Review the following table to learn more about the which data is used to determine shipping emissions:

Factor

Primary value

If primary value isn't available

Weight

Weight of the shipment

An average shipment weight

Distance

Distance traveled according to the tracking data

Straight-line distance between the origin and destination address, multiplied by an uncertainty factor of 1.5

Type of transportation

Truck or plane carbon emissions, determined by speed and distance

Truck emissions

To estimate your emissions, the Planet app uses order tracking data associated with the tracking number assigned to the shipment. If the tracking number isn’t available or the shipping carrier isn’t supported, then the Planet app multiplies the estimated emissions by an uncertainty factor of 1.5. The uncertainty factor helps make sure that all your emissions are removed. If any data is inconsistent or missing, then the Planet app uses a reasonable maximum value instead.

For example, suppose that you ship a package from Boston to New York. The straight-line distance is 305.94 km, but the shortest road route is around 350 km. If tracking data is available, then the Planet app uses the exact distance traveled.

However, if no tracking data is provided, then 305.94 km is used in the base calculation, and the resulting emissions would be multiplied by 1.5. This calculation accounts for variations in the route, such as distances traveled from post offices and distribution centers, and the route taken by the courier to deliver the package to your customer's door.

Considerations for using the Planet app

Review the following considerations for the Carbon Neutral Shipping Planet app:

  • The models and estimates aren’t exact, but the Planet app overestimates your emissions to make sure that they’re entirely removed. 
  • The Planet app removes only carbon (CO2) emissions that account for 95% of the climate impact from burning fossil fuels for transportation. Other emissions such as CH4, N2O, and GHG aren’t removed.
  • Orders that are shipped by sea transportation (we do not ship any orders by sea) don't generate the data required to accurately calculate emissions. Instead, industry-accepted alternative methods are used to calculate emissions.
  • The Planet app currently focuses on addressing emissions from shipping-related transportation.
