Climate Counts was founded back in 2007 to provide consumers with the information they need to make more climate-conscious choices in their everyday lives. The organization does this through its annual scorecard, which ranks companies on their voluntary actions to reverse climate change and water pollution that affects our quality of life.
How Did Climate Counts Scorecard Work?
The Climate Counts Scorecard was based on a comprehensive set of criteria that looked at everything from a company’s public policy positions to its emissions reduction efforts. Each year, the scorecard was updated to reflect the latest data and developments.
What Top Brands Did ScoreCard Track?
The Climate Counts Scorecard tracked the progress of some of the world’s most well-known brands, including Apple, Coca-Cola, General Motors, Nike, and Walmart. What they revealed is that while some companies are leading the way on climate action, while others are lagging behind.
What Impact Did The ScoreCard Have?
The Climate Counts Scorecard helped put pressure on these companies to take climate change seriously and make meaningful progress in reducing their emissions. In some cases, the scorecard also helped drive changes in corporate policy. For example, following intense public pressure, Walmart agreed to start reporting its emissions in 2010.
What Happened to Climate Counts?
As time moved on so did the content creators of Climate Counts and the website went stagnant for years. The last scorecard was released in 2015 and the website has not been updated since 2018.
