What is Climate Neutrality

A state in which human activities result in no net effect on the climate system. Requires balancing of residual greenhouse gas emissions with reductions or removals. All Climate Neutral Certified brands must meet climate neutrality standards for measuring, offsetting, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions from making and delivering products and services.

This certification covers business activities and operations for the following brands :

01 Measure

CHNGE measured Scope 1, 2 and 3 cradle-to-customer emissions following categories and approaches established in the Climate Neutral standards.

GHG Scope 1

GHG Protocol Scope 1

Emissions from energy used in buildings, fleets, and equipment.

0 tCO2e

6 tCO2e

GHG Scope 3

GHG Protocol Scope 3

Emissions from raw materials, manufacturing, shipping, air travel, and other activities in the supply chain.

1,721 tCO2e

Total Emissions

Total Carbon Emissions

The sum of Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions.

1,727 tCO2e

02 Offset

CHNGE invested in projects outside of their value chain to compensate for all of their measured carbon emissions. This step supports their climate neutrality designation, and enables CHNGE to take responsibility for historical emissions that can’t be reduced.

Total Investment in Carbon Credits

$20,724.00

CHNGE's credits came from:

Emissions Offset

Offset equivalency

For reference, reducing a footprint by 1000 tonnes is roughly equal to removing 230 passenger vehicles from the road for a year.

1,727 tCO2e

Lifetime Emissions Offsets

03 Reduce

CHNGE has set targets and identified actions to reduce their emissions from operations and their supply chain. These actions will enable CHNGE to emit fewer emissions in the future.

Mid Term Targets

CHNGE has committed to reducing emissions by .

This target is aligned with global trajectories to limit climate warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius.

Mid Term Targets

This target is aligned with global trajectories to limit climate warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius.

Reduction Actions

CHNGE is implementing a Reduction Action Plan to reduce emissions from within its own operations and supply chain.

Current Year Reduction Actions

What We’re Reducing

We plan to reduce waste by adopting more of a preorder model for the purchasing of our clothing, so we are not manufacturing extra inventory that will not be sold.

How We'll Reduce It

We will communicate to our customers that certain items are on a preorder for several months, so they can buy the item before it is available. We will then only produce what has been purchased.

What We’re Reducing

We plan to reduce emissions from the poly-bags that our clothes are shipped in by replacing them with a more sustainable alternative.

How We'll Reduce It

We will work to find a supplier of sustainable packaging that can offer us a more environmentally friendly solution than our current poly-bag.

20%

What We’re Reducing

We plan to work with your factories or suppliers to improve energy efficiency

How We'll Reduce It

We will survey our factories to understand their kwh footprint. They use renewables so we expect with more accurate data our numbers will reduce on a percentage basis

47%

What We’re Reducing

We plan to reduce emissions from shipping.

How We'll Reduce It

We will accurately count shipping via ocean freight versus air.
