ClimateCost - Embodied Climate Footprint Index

The products we buy, sell, and use all have a ClimateCost.

The ClimateCost organization was formed to help transparently account and reclaim the embodied emission climate costs across all consumer goods categories. 

​We help companies become Net-Zero.

Products with ClimateCost labeling have been assessed and their remaining embodied emissions reclaimed with real, verifiable clean energy generation.

Measure.

The ClimateCost Index is a database of product embodied greenhouse gas emission footprints developed by performing an adjusted cradle-to-grave Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) to evaluate the climate burden of the products. These assessments take a conservative approach so that emissions would be overestimated rather than underestimated. Our partners are experienced and accredited LCA practitioners.

Reinvest & Reclaim.

​If the United States South were a country, it would be the 6th largest polluter of carbon emissions in the world. Your product purchases with ClimateCost partners build new solar energy facilities that reclaim carbon emissions from the dirtiest parts of the American electricity grid.

Report.

Products with the ClimateCost label have been assessed and their remaining embodied emissions reclaimed with real, verifiable clean energy generation.  This clear transparent number gives an easy to understand and universal representation of the embodied greenhouse has emissions in that product.

The ClimateCost index is an ISO-based GHG emissions index that assesses durable and non-durable goods and/or services’ climate footprint as a numerical figure representing the embodied CO2e emissions related to that product.  It accounts for extraction, production, transport, and end of life. We operate on a philosophy of ‘assume the worst, prove otherwise’. Assumptions are made that intentionally “round up” numbers from all data points due to the variability of supply chains to assure that no undercounting.
