About Climate Neutral Certification

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.

The built environment is responsible for 40% of all global carbon emissions. The technology and expertise is increasingly available to deliver lower emission, higher quality developments that are better for their inhabitants and the environment. Yet awareness of new methods is still in its infancy. Our aim is to bring these new and improved practices to the decision tables, helping developers find more responsible, sustainable solutions and ensuring that these morally correct options also deliver stronger profitability. We are focused on playing our part in creating a future that better serves people and planet. We believe that the most responsible developers deserve to be the most profitable.
