Project Reef

Sustainability Story

We believe our world's oceans deserve to be loved and respected every day. Their health is a reflection of ours, and now more than ever, these rich ecosystems need our unwavering support. Beyond our reef positive products, we believe in helping the oceans return to a pristine and safe environment - one action at a time. Each purchase from Project Reef removes 1lb of plastic from the world's oceans - the equivalent of 22 water bottles - through partner organizations such as ReSea and PlasticBank. Additionally, our packaging is made from plastic waste collected from the shorelines or oceans and used to create our sunscreen tubes. For us, environmental education and action are vital to living in harmony on Mother Earth. We're organizing regular beach cleanups in Hawaii to maximize our impact at home, building a community committed to doing what's right for the planet, and supporting worldwide reef restoration initiatives. And we're just getting started.

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 :

No items found.

Project Reef achieved Climate Neutral Certification as part of 's certification process. 's measurement, offsetting and reduction plans fully account for Project Reef's 2021 emissions

01 Measure

Project Reef 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

2 tCO2e

GHG Scope 3

GHG Protocol Scope 3

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

257 tCO2e

Total Emissions

Total Carbon Emissions

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

259 tCO2e

02 Offset

Project Reef 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 Project Reef to take responsibility for historical emissions that can’t be reduced.

Total Investment in Carbon Credits

$3,781.40

Project Reef'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.

03 Reduce

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

Mid Term Targets

Project Reef has committed to reducing emissions by .

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