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

Synapse Product Development 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.

3 tCO2e

604 tCO2e

GHG Scope 3

GHG Protocol Scope 3

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

2,187 tCO2e

Total Emissions

Total Carbon Emissions

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

2,795 tCO2e

02 Offset

Synapse Product Development 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 Synapse Product Development to take responsibility for historical emissions that can’t be reduced.

Total Investment in Carbon Credits

$34,099

Synapse Product Development'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

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

Mid Term Targets

Synapse Product Development 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

Synapse Product Development 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 emissions from purchased electricity by right-sizing our active office space to better fit our operations.

How We'll Reduce It

To achieve this goal, we will relocate a portion of our current office space to a suite with less square footage and better energy efficiency.

What We’re Reducing

We plan to reduce emissions resulting from downstream shipping with 3rd party logistics companies.

How We'll Reduce It

We will achieve this goal by combining shipments to reduce the total number of shipments sent, as well as reducing the urgency of shipments, targeting a reduction in number of overnight shipments.
