Wherever you see the Climate Neutral Certified label, it means the company is accountable for its greenhouse gas emissions. To earn the label, a company must annually measure cradle-to-customer emissions, implement specific action plans to reduce emissions, and invest in high quality, verified carbon credits.
The certification requirements are detailed in the rigorous, peer-reviewed Climate Neutral Certified Standard. Each company’s application is reviewed for compliance by Change Climate’s certification team.

Projects that support wind energy generation in order to reduce dependence on fossil fuels.
Being named after the amazing orca whale, we have always had the environment in mind since we started. When wildfires started becoming a regular occurrence in Washington state and threatened our races, we felt a very direct impact on our business from climate change. Since then, we have improved and strengthened our commitment to sustainability, becoming the first carbon neutral running races in Washington state in 2022. We are continuing that commitment for the future by joining 1% For the Planet and becoming Climate Neutral Certified in 2023.
