## Sustainability story

Before we made our first recycled poly tee, JOOB had measured it's emissions, worked on ways to reduce it's footprint, and offset unavoidable emissions to be carbon neutral. First through our partner South Pole, then with Climate Neutral when they started their operations in the US.

## Emissions (2023)

**Methodology:** JOOB Activewear's inventory uses spending data to estimate GHG emissions. JOOB Activewear attests to the accuracy of their data inputs and the Change Climate Project team reviews the submission for compliance with the Standard.
