• Measuring your carbon footprint has never been easier.

Item 1 of 2

We have made it easy for every Kiwi business to know their carbon footprint.

So you can take action to reduce it.

Taking the complexity out of taking action.

Kiwi businesses have a responsibility and an opportunity to step up to the climate challenge. But high costs, long wait times and complicated processes mean doing the right thing has been very challenging. Until now.

Developed specifically for a New Zealand context, the Climate Action Label will help you:

Build customer trust and loyalty

Focus on reducing your emissions

Map your carbon footprint, including supply chain

Guide you through purchasing emission offsets

Co-create a clear carbon reduction pathway that fits your business

Take real action on the climate crisis

  • “You guided us through a complex topic in an easy to understand manner. Our 2030 emissions reduction target is now an integral part of our business strategy.”

    CEO, Dunedin Ventures Management Ltd

  • “Andrew’s knowledge of what is happening globally allowed us to create a meaningful Carbon Reduction Strategy aligned with the international standards.”

How the Climate Action Label Works

This independently provided label ensures the Climate Actions taken by an organisation are clear and transparent. The Label is backed by a robust methodology and six step framework.

Calculate

What gets measured, gets managed. First, your Carbon Action Advisor will calculate your organisation’s carbon footprint – and provide a detailed, but easy to follow report that shows the business activities having the greatest climate impact. This is your benchmark.

Offset

Now you’ve reduced your emissions, choose to offset the rest through local, certified carbon offsetting programmes. We can help you select a programme that aligns with your values and meets your carbon offsetting goals.

Identify

We’ll work with you to create a Carbon Emissions Reduction Plan that outlines the key actions to take to reduce emissions in your business – aligned with the science of limiting global temperature rise to 1.5 degrees.

Communicate

You don’t have to be ‘perfect’ to start communicating your journey to clients, customers and industry partners. We offer support, advice and a communication toolkit to help you share your footprint and emissions reduction commitment.

Act

We’re there to support you as you take action – helping you turn obstacles into opportunities. The label you earn includes the year, so customers know you’re current with your commitments.

Repeat

To stay transparent, get your footprint re-measured each year to map your progress and display the current year’s label.

We’ve developed a robust carbon calculation and reduction methodology – designed specifically for Kiwi-based organisations, and aligned with global best practice.

For conscious consumers

The Climate Action Label makes it easy to spot those Kiwi brands and organisations taking real, measurable actions to combat climate change.
