The bulk of our footprint is scope 3 emissions, so while we are doing what we can to reduce scope 1-2, we are focused on reducing our scope 3 emissions.

i have asked my suppliers to halve emissions before 2030 and join the un-backed race to zero campaign

i have communicated my commitment and actions to my business customers and asked them to join the un race to zero

What percentage of your total revenue comes from sales of climate solutions?

Provide descriptions/names of your climate solutions:

We help salons and spas divert 95% of their beauty waste from landfill. Salons send us their hard to recycle materials via UPS carbon neutral shipping and we divert these items from landfill.

Methodology used to assess these as climate solutions:

We are able to calculate the avoided emissions resulting from our waste diversion services using the US EPA WARM Model.

How much of your research and development budget is allocated to climate solutions?

100

are you investing in climate and/or nature outside your value chain?

Yes

provide details of the project/s you invest in:

We invest in tree planting initiatives and also invest in verified carbon offsets on behalf of all our our member salons and in order to offset our scope 1-3 corporate emissions.

how are they quality secured?

We collaborated with American Forests on tree planting initiatives and we work with a third-party to source and retire verified carbon offsets. We invest in offset projects that are certified by Verra or Gold Standard.
