Go Climate Positive is delighted to announce that we are now a certified B Corp, demonstrating that the business meets high standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability.
B Corp Certification looks at everything we do and assesses how we run the business, how we treat our workers, our customers and the environment as well as our community involvement. The certification process is rigorous; we had to provide evidence on performance in the assessment areas. We also had to legally embed our commitment to purpose as well as profit in our company articles.
We are proud that Go Climate Positive is now part of a growing community of over 9,700 companies globally that are reinventing business for the benefit of all people and our shared planet. The B Corp community in the UK is one of the largest and fastest-growing in the world, with over 2,500 companies spanning a range of different industries and sizes. Names include The Guardian, Innocent Drinks, Patagonia, Tony’s Chocolonely, The Big Issue, Finisterre, Elemis, and Sipsmith Gin.
Eoin McQuone, Founder of Go Climate Positive, says:
“We’re thrilled to be part of the B Corp movement. It’s not enough to help other businesses to be greener, we also need to make sure we run our own business in line with our values. I identified B Corp certification early on as the best way for us to do that and I’m thrilled to have reached the first stage in that journey.”
