Take climate action,
get the credit you deserve.
The comprehensive climate impact metric businesses have been missing.
A meta-framework and
an action-guiding scorecard
The Climate Contribution Framework quantitatively scores companies on their performance towards global net zero by measuring their efforts related to a holistic set of levers--Carbon Footprint Reduction, Climate Solutions, and Climate Finance. The CCF does not replace existing frameworks. It brings them together to generate a Scorecard that reflects your company's entire climate action.
Three clear results: Contribution potential,
raw performance,
and contribution score
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.

The three 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.
Decarbonize operations and the value chain
Reduce emissions across Scope 1, 2, and 3 through transition planning, low-carbon procurement, and climate-conscious OPEX and CAPEX investments.
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.
Direct capital towards net zero projects
Support beyond the value chain through carbon credits, climate technologies, investment funds and philanthropies dedicated to net zero.

methodological transparency.
