For a band that could barely get arrested during their original run in the late 1960s and early '70s, the Stooges have had a genuinely remarkable afterlife, with devoted fans still eagerly scrambling after every last scrap of the group's recorded legacy. Dozens of semi-authorized albums (and a few outright bootlegs) have emerged of late-period Stooges gigs and studio sessions with Raw Power-era guitarist James Williamson, but there are far fewer artifacts documenting the extracurricular activities of the band's original lineup with Ron Asheton on lead guitar, though several important exceptions appeared in the new millennium, most notably the box set 1970: The Complete Fun House Sessions, the live collection You Don't Want My Name, You Want My Action (chronicling a short-lived, two-guitar edition of the Stooges), and Have Some Fun: Live at Ungano's, a live document of the band on-stage in New York in 1970. Add to this short roster A Thousand Lights, which brings together a handful of live tapes of the Stooges on-stage in 1970, roaring through material from their masterpiece Funhouse. This disc was drawn primarily from audience tapes, and these recordings will make any audiophile cringe; the performances are compelling, with Asheton's guitar sounding ferocious, Iggy Pop as primal and powerful as you could ever ask for, and the rhythm section thoroughly indefatigable, but the muddy, distorted sound quality is lousy enough to compromise the strength of some very fine performances. Half of the ten tracks were taken from a show in Chicago, while two others came from a New York show of the same vintage as Have Some Fun (which does boast better sound, though it's still not up to professional standards). And the final three tracks should be familiar to anyone who has ever searched for the Stooges on YouTube: a truncated version of "1970" from the band's set at the Goose Lake Rock Festival (it proved to be Dave Alexander's last show with the band; the lack of bass lending credence to the legend that he blanked out on-stage) and bits of two songs from a Cincinnati, OH show videotaped for the syndicated TV special Midsummer Rock (this was the show where Iggy walked out on the audience's hands before smearing himself with peanut butter), complete with banter from the hosts of the broadcast ("There goes Iggy right into the crowd! We've lost audio on him . this seems like a good chance to get a message in!"). Easy Action's packaging for this set is beautiful, with a booklet of rare color photos of the band in action, but though A Thousand Lights confirms what a wild, dazzling band the Stooges could be, the substandard sound quality and the presence of the same songs over and over ("1970" appears no less than four times) makes this a disc for hardcore Stooges zealots only. ~ Mark Deming

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.
