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 solar power generation in order to reduce dependence on fossil fuels.

When it comes to climate, ski companies are pretty good at hiding behind the 'cool' factor of skiing. In reality, producing skis and snowboards are incredibly detrimental to the environment in which they are used. We're excited to be the first ski company in the world to offset our carbon footprint ? but admitting we're part of the problem is only the first step.
