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.

Improved forest management

Description

Projects focused on developing sustainable management and harvesting practices in forest ecosystems.

We view climate-neutral certification as an extension of our agricultural practices, really. Growing cannabis in the soil, under the sun and rain—it not only makes for great bud, but it also makes environmental sense. This year, we offset over 100 tonnes of carbon with a reforestation project. We hope to bring that number down in the coming years and even become carbon negative in the future.
