Sustainability Story
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 :
KORA Organics achieved Climate Neutral Certification as part of 's certification process. 's measurement, offsetting and reduction plans fully account for KORA Organics's 2021 emissions
01 Measure
KORA Organics measured Scope 1, 2 and 3 cradle-to-customer emissions following categories and approaches established in the Climate Neutral standards.
GHG Protocol Scope 1
Emissions from energy used in buildings, fleets, and equipment.
1 tCO2e
GHG Protocol Scope 2
Emissions from electricity.
33 tCO2e
GHG Protocol Scope 3
Emissions from raw materials, manufacturing, shipping, air travel, and other activities in the supply chain.
3,519 tCO2e
Total Carbon Emissions
The sum of Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions.
3,553 tCO2e
02 Offset
KORA Organics 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 KORA Organics to take responsibility for historical emissions that can’t be reduced.

03 Reduce
KORA Organics has set targets and identified actions to reduce their emissions from operations and their supply chain. These actions will enable KORA Organics to emit fewer emissions in the future.
Mid Term Targets
KORA Organics has committed to reducing 2021 emissions 50% by 2030.
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
KORA Organics is implementing a Reduction Action Plan to reduce emissions from within its own operations and supply chain.
Current Year Reduction Actions
01
What We’re Reducing
We plan to reduce our upstream shipping emissions by 20% over the course of the next 12 months.
How We'll Reduce It
We plan to achieve this goal by reducing the usage of air freight to ship packaging and finished goods and pivoting more toward ocean freight. We can achieve this by continuing to extend our production planning horizon.
02
What We’re Reducing
We plan to move away from the use of virgin, non-recyclable, and/or non-reusable packaging for our products.
How We'll Reduce It
We plan to use only refillable, recyclable, recycled or biodegradable packaging for our production launches and also plan to repackage existing hero products in these over the next 2 years.
