What is Cooler Certified?

Like you, Cooler knows global warming is getting worse and we all need to take action. Too much time and money are sunk into measuring and reporting for compliance, with not enough spent on actually reducing emissions.

You want to take action--that's our focus: we estimate your carbon footprint, and give you a firehose to put out your part of the fire, and give you Cooler Certified badges to let everyone know. Cooler Certified is a program designed to help you measure your carbon footprint, then take authentic, measurable, traceable action to combat climate change.

By joining the Cooler Certified program, you not only neutralize your emissions but also contribute to a collective effort to purchase emissions permits in regulated, capped markets. These permits are the same ones required by major polluters, effectively limiting their ability to emit greenhouse gases.

How It Works

Measure

We start by automatically measuring your estimated carbon footprint with our science-backed automated carbon calculator. Over 75% of a business's emissions occur outside of your control (known as Scope 3 emissions), which makes it expensive and difficult to track and measure. Cooler developed an Economic Input-Output Life Cycle Assessment (EIO-LCA) model to estimate your emissions, which is the most accurate way to measure your carbon footprint.

Neutralize

Once measured, we help you neutralize your emissions through our automated, tangible, measurable approach: by pooling the efforts of all our customers, we purchase emissions permits that reduce the overall allowable emissions in the capped markets. It's almost like having a lever you can pull to lower emissions at power plants.

Eliminate

After we purchase the emissions permits, we retire them so they can't be used, and give you the traceable permit identification numbers in service of transparency. And just like that, you've reduced carbon emissions and have earned the Cooler Certified Emissions Reduction badge.

Join a Growing List of Climate Pioneers

Together, we can create a cleaner, more sustainable future. By joining Cooler Certified, you not only demonstrate your commitment to environmental responsibility and help lead the way in reducing global carbon emissions, you're joining a group of businesses pooling their resources to turn our drops into rivers and oceans of impact.
