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 capture or remove emissions from industrial processes.

We believe that if we all try to Make A Positive Choice we can create positive change in the world. We are always and forever a vegan company. We don't believe in doing something to protect animals whilst harming humans and the planet. Our collections are made in Italy & Portugal under European Union employment, discrimination and health & safety law. We use sustainable materials as much as possible including bio-based vegan leather, natural and recycled materials. We operate a plastic-free carbon neutral supply chain using sustainable materials. Everything we make and do is carbon neutral since 2016. When your purchase is at its end of use, for a small charge, you can return it to us to be recycled. We don't discount or go on sale.
