You can use the Climate Counts Company Scorecard to see how serious companies are about stopping climate change - and how they compare to their sector competitors. The annually updated scorecard reflects the self-reported efforts of companies to address climate change - or avoid it altogether.
The higher the score, the greater the company's commitment to fighting global warming.
Climate Counts use a 0-to-100 point scale and 22 criteria to determine if companies have:
- MEASURED their climate "footprint"
- REDUCED their impact on global warming
- SUPPORTED (or suggest intent to block) progressive climate legislation
- Publicly DISCLOSED their climate actions clearly and comprehensively
GreenOrder, a leading sustainability strategy firm, provided strategic guidance on the Climate Counts program, assisted in the development of the scoring system, and provided insights on the scoring implications.

- Of course, please support high-ranked companies when you shop and invest.
- Tell your friends, colleagues, and family to join you in supporting companies that are taking responsibility for climate change.
