Here's our story:


We manage a climate certification for consumer brands. It's called The Climate Label, and it's the only climate certification that gets down to brass tacks: we don't certify companies for their hopes and dreams. We certify them when they put their best assets to work - their money and their people - for the net-zero transition.
‍
We believe climate commitments must be more than promises. They should drive real change. Unfortunately, many climate pledges are little more than words on paper.

Our certification is a nudge and a reward: companies meet a higher bar for climate action; you reward them by looking for the label when you buy stuff.


Certification Based on Follow-Through
The Climate Label is the first consumer-facing certification that ensures businesses fund climate solutions at a scale that matches their emissions—not just as a pledge, but as a verified, ongoing practice.

Systemic Change, Not Just Symbolism
‍The Climate Label doesn’t just guide corporate climate action—it builds a culture of accountability that raises the bar for sustainability. With annual reporting, independent verification, and clear financial commitments, certified companies lead by example.

Fighting Greenwashing and Strengthening Public Trust
Misinformation and greenwashing weaken climate action. We work to bolster public trust and build momentum for broadly binding climate governance, by ensuring certified companies don’t just set targets, but actually finance solutions. By setting a clear, credible, consumer-facing standard, we empower consumers, businesses, and policymakers alike to distinguish between real action and empty claims.

A Catalyst for Cooperation
A movement as ambitious as The Climate Label mobilizes individual companies – and it builds community. Going beyond funding for climate solutions, we're working to make climate action accessible and reinforce systems that will make climate action non-negotiable—ensuring that businesses, governments, and individuals turn climate commitments into real, measurable progress.

🌍 Join us in making our standard of leadership the new normal. By funding our work, you will strengthen the governance, transparency, and collaboration needed to drive systemic, long-term change.

Certification with The Climate Label does not imply that a product or company has zero environmental impact. The Climate Label signifies that the company has met rigorous, standardized requirements for greenhouse gas emissions measurement, reduction, disclosure, and funding of climate solutions.
