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.

Description

Projects that support wind energy generation in order to reduce dependence on fossil fuels.

The starting point is simple: You can't save the planet by buying Icebug shoes. Consumption consumes resources. But if you need a pair of shoes, we're doing what we can to reduce the environmental damage, and choosing a better option sends a signal to the entire industry. The other side of the coin is maximizing positive impact. On the personal, societal and planetary level. Our purpose is to inspire and empower people to get outdoors, connecting with nature and getting healthier. To explore how we can develop good work and life, where people develop to fulfill their potential. And to be a change-maker that drives the entire footwear industry to become less dirty. Since 2019 Icebug is the first climate positive outdoor footwear brand. From 2020 onwards, we're offsetting 200% of carbon emissions caused. We are members of 1% for the planet and support several projects aiming to restore our planet.
