About Ornot

We're a small company based in San Francisco made up of people who enjoy the outdoors and enjoy it even more when the air is clean. In our personal lives we all make choices to be more sustainable and we think that companies should do the same. That's why we have chosen to become climate neutral certified along with 1% for the planet members. Every decision we make as a business is run through a "lens" to insure we are making choices to mitigate climate change. We could do business as usual, Ornot.

01 Measure

Ornot measured Scope 1, 2 and 3 cradle-to-customer emissions following categories and approaches established in the Climate Neutral standards.

02 Offset

Ornot 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 Ornot to take responsibility for historical emissions that can’t be reduced.

03 Reduce

Ornot is implementing a Reduction Action Plan to reduce emissions from within its own operations and supply chain.

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.
