Climate Counts
Climate Counts, spearheaded by
global warming.[1]
Companies are given a 0 to 100 score based on whether they have measured their
global warming (with ongoing progress toward those reductions to show for it), supported (or suggest intent to block) progressive climate legislation, and publicly disclosed their climate actions clearly and comprehensively.[2] They outline their criteria for scoring in greater detail in the Climate Counts Scorecard.[3]
Climate Counts publishes a downloadable pocket shopping guide based on company scores and ranks and in keeping with the organization's own efforts to reduce its impact, offers shoppers the option of having a paperless version sent to their cell phones.
