Take climate action, get the credit you deserve.

The comprehensive climate impact metric businesses have been missing.

A meta-framework and an actionnable scoreboard

The Climate Contribution Framework does not replace existing frameworks. It brings them together to obtain a Scorecard that reflects your company's entire climate action.

There are more than 600 frameworks...

...We study them and organize everything...

to provide you with a simple & clear score!

Your Scorecard

Three clear results: Potential, actual, and performance

This structure answers both "What could you do?" and "What are you doing?", creating accountability while recognizing the diversity of pathways. The result: actionable insights, clear signals on areas where companies should improve and where capital can generate maximum impact.

01

Contribution Potential

Maximum achievable climate contribution based on sector

02

Score

Currently achieved climate contribution.

03

Contribution Performance

Ratio between achieved potential and achievable potential in %

How it works

The 3 pillars of climate action

A company's carbon inventory cannot be the only measure of success or failure. The Climate Contribution Framework recognizes not only companies ability to reduce its carbon inventory over time but also whether it is building the low-carbon products of the future and if the company is financing projects that deliver emissions mitigation results or investing in net-zero enabling systems change.

A

Reduce

Decarbonize operations and the value chain

Reduce emissions across Scopes 1, 2, and 3 through transition planning, low-carbon procurement, and climate-conscious OPEX and CAPEX investments.

B

Deploy

Scale up low-carbon solutions

Create and deploy products and services that accelerate the transition to a climate safe world: renewable energy, circular economy innovations, and technologies building the net-zero economy.

C

Finance

Direct capital towards Net Zero projects

Support beyond the value chain through carbon credits, climate technologies, investment funds and philanthropies dedicated to net zero.
