We reduce carbon in 3 not-that-easy steps
Measure
We obsessively measure - from field to fridge and beyond - the entire carbon footprint of our products.
Reduce
We partner with farmers to create carbon-reduction projects on their farms.
Offset
If we can’t inset more carbon than we produce, we offset with verified carbon credits from other dairy farmers that are turning cow poop into clean energy.
What we measure
We obsessively measure the entire carbon footprint of our products, from field to fridge and beyond. And to be sure our claims are accurate, we work with the world’s foremost scientific advisors in dairy to help us out.
How we reduce
Neutral partners with farmers across the U.S. to implement carbon-reduction projects on their land. This includes everything from manure management, to silvopasture (planting trees), to improved forage production and beyond. Our dairy farmers are truly carbon reduction pioneers, and together, we’re getting closer to our mission of reducing the carbon footprint of agriculture, for good.
Offsetting what’s left
Finally, as our reduction efforts are a work in progress, we guarantee that every product is 100% carbon neutral by investing in carbon offsets. Neutral only acquires offsets from U.S. dairy farmers that are verified by Climate Action Reserve (CAR), American Carbon Registry, and VERRA. Verifying our offsets through accredited auditors ensures the projects we support are real, additional, permanent, verifiable, and enforceable.
Our products are also Carbon Neutral Certified by SCS Global Services, a leader in 3rd party verification for environmental and sustainability claims. That means our products have passed a stringent set of requirements to verify their carbon footprints and that we’ve either eliminated emissions through our on-farm projects or purchased enough verified carbon offsets to ensure they are carbon-neutral.
