ClimeCo Launches EcoCommitted Partner Program to Allow Small, Midsize Businesses to Easily Offset Their Carbon Footprints

Conscientious businesses can take first step on their sustainability journey in less than one minute 

BOYERTOWN, Pa., Feb. 27, 2024 /CNW/ -- On the heels of National Entrepreneur Week, ClimeCo, the leading global decarbonization and environmental solutions company, has launched its EcoCommitted Partner Program. This innovative program provides a convenient, cost-effective and valid way for small and midsize businesses (SMBs) to stand out by implementing a sustainability strategy, minimizing their carbon footprint and demonstrating environmental concern and leadership.

Through the EcoCommitted Partner Program, businesses can choose from three options based on their size to effectively offset their entire operation for one year by purchasing offset credits from a group of active and validated environmental projects from around the world. As a leading expert in the fight against climate change, ClimeCo has fully vetted, hand-selected and bundled these projects based on their strong record of performance and positive environmental impact. EcoCommitted projects may include forest conservation and management, the removal of harmful methane gas, the abatement of industrial greenhouse gas emissions and other impactful efforts.

Three levels of support are available:

• One to Five Employee Program ? A $400 investment allows for a 32 metric ton (MT) offset, an amount equal to the carbon dioxide equivalent emissions of taking 7 gasoline-powered vehicles off the road for one year
• Six to Ten Employee Program ? An $800 investment allows for a 64 MT offset, approximately the carbon dioxide equivalent emissions for the annual energy use of 8 homes 
• Eleven to Twenty Employee Program ? A $1600 investment allows for a 128 MT offset, roughly the carbon dioxide equivalent emissions for 300 barrels of oil consumed

ClimeCo has crunched the numbers to determine the annual amount needed to offset businesses by size, and registration takes less than one minute via an e-commerce enabled website. Companies looking to calculate a custom footprint, offset their shipping, events, or plastic usage or to specify the exact projects they would like to support should contact the experts at ClimeCo directly.

ClimeCo EcoCommitted Partners also receive a custom certificate to display their commitment to sustainability at their locations, on their website, or on social media, helping to attract the ever-growing number of consumers who want to do business with environmentally friendly and action-oriented companies. The EcoCommitted status must be renewed annually.

"Interest in taking tangible steps to help the planet, whether from businesses or consumers, has never been higher, but many are intimidated by the process or unsure how to get started," said ClimeCo President and Chief Executive Officer Bill Flederbach. "Because ClimeCo believes that every business is capable of making a difference in the critical fight against climate change, we have created the EcoCommitted Partner Program to remove barriers to entry and allow them to move forward easily and with great confidence in the impact of the programs they are supporting. We hope this will be the first of many steps our partners take to continue the path toward greater sustainability."
