2022 Best For The World™ B Corp™

Veröffentlicht 13 Juli 2022

ClimateCare, now Climate Impact Partners, has been named a 2022 Best for the World™ B Corp™ in recognition of its exceptional positive impact on its customers. Every year, Best for the World recognizes the top-performing B Corps creating the greatest positive impact through their businesses.

The company earned this honor because of the impact from its programs that dramatically improve the quality of life for underserved communities in Africa, Asia, and South America through increased access to clean water, clean cooking technology, and solar technology.

“We are thrilled to be named as one of the Best for the World B Corps of 2022,” says Vaughan Lindsay, CEO of Climate Impact Partners. “B Corps are already businesses that have met the highest standards, and we’re in the top 5% of our group because of the impact we deliver, working alongside our climate-leading clients and the best project partners in the world. I am proud to work with a global team of passionate experts who have been recognized for their commitment to delivering real, positive climate impact.”

"Each Best for the World edition is an opportunity to raise the bar for how businesses can and should operate to create real and lasting positive impact for their workers, customers, communities, and the environment," said Dan Osusky, Head of Standards and Insights at B Lab Global. "While no company is perfect and even the best companies can and should continue to strive to improve, the B Corps recognized as Best for the World can provide us all — standards setters, B Corps, non B Corps, and sustainability advocates — with inspiration on what true leadership in business can look like to make progress on addressing our current global challenges.”

B Corp Certification doesn’t just evaluate a product or service, it assesses the overall social and environmental impact of the company that stands behind it. To achieve B Corp Certification, a company must meet a score of at least 80 points on the B Impact Assessment, an evaluation of a company’s positive impact, and pass a risk review, an evaluation of a company’s negative impact; change their corporate governance structure to be accountable to all stakeholders, not just shareholders; and exhibit transparency by allowing information about their B Corp Certification performance to be publicly available on their B Corp profile on B Lab’s website.

The Best for the World recognition is administered by B Lab, the global nonprofit network that certifies and mobilizes B Corps, which are businesses that meet high standards of positive social and environmental performance, accountability, and transparency. Today, there are more than 5,000 B Corps across 80 countries and 155 industries, unified by one common goal: building an inclusive, equitable, and regenerative economic system.

More than a badge of honor, Best for the World provides an opportunity for recognized companies to share knowledge, learnings, and best practices with the B Corp community and businesses outside of the community to encourage innovation and transformation across the business sector.
