Wherever you see the Climate Neutral Certified label, it means the company is accountable for its greenhouse gas emissions. To earn the label, a company must annually measure cradle-to-customer emissions, implement specific action plans to reduce emissions, and invest in high quality, verified carbon credits.
The certification requirements are detailed in the rigorous, peer-reviewed Climate Neutral Certified Standard. Each company’s application is reviewed for compliance by Change Climate’s certification team.

Blueland is on a mission to eliminate single-use plastic packaging from our everyday products, starting with our homes. From the very beginning, sustainability has been core to our mission. Our products are designed as a reusable, refillable system that has already helped divert over 1 billion single-use plastic bottles from landfills and oceans. Our tablet technology allows us to ship smaller and lighter products compared to traditional, liquid based cleaners. This means we can cut down on emissions when getting our products to our customers. We're always working to cut down on our emissions, but for everything we're still working on, we're proud to work with Climate Neutral to offset our emissions.
