About CLIMATE NEUTRAL (aka The Change Climate Project)

Climate Neutral, now operating as The Change Climate Project, is a U.S.-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit headquartered in San Francisco that runs The Climate Label (formerly Climate Neutral Certified) and provides carbon measurement and management tools to consumer brands. The organization combines certification, technical support, and an accessible software platform to help brands measure cradle-to-customer emissions, implement multi-year reduction plans, and fund climate solutions at a level that matches their ongoing emissions. Climate Neutral/The Change Climate Project completed a formal name change in October 2023 and issued an updated certification standard and public launch of The Climate Label (2024–2025), and its most recent public filings show it is an operating, donor-facing charity with active brand certification work and ongoing program revenue and staff capacity.

Notable achievements

Organizational rebrand and expansion

Completed an organizational name change to The Change Climate Project in October 2023 to reflect program growth while retaining the Climate Label certification as the consumer-facing mark.

Launch of The Climate Label (2024–2025)

Published and began implementing an updated 2025 certification standard (branded as The Climate Label) that shifts certification toward standardized funding requirements and multi-year reduction plans, replacing the prior 'carbon neutrality' model.

Widespread brand adoption

Built a directory of certified companies (described by the organization as 'hundreds' of certified brands) using its label and platform to measure emissions, set reduction plans, and fund climate solutions.
