Climate Pledge
The Climate Pledge is a corporate commitment launched in 2019 by Amazon and Global Optimism to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2040, ten years ahead of the goals set in the Paris Agreement. Companies that sign the pledge commit to three main actions: measuring and reporting greenhouse gas emissions regularly, implementing decarbonization strategies aligned with the Paris Agreement through real business changes, and neutralizing any remaining emissions with credible offsets. Signatories focus on initiatives such as renewable energy adoption, electrification of transport, energy efficiency improvements, sustainable supply chains, and circular economy practices. The Climate Pledge also encourages collaboration among businesses to accelerate innovation and scale climate solutions. Since its launch, hundreds of companies across multiple sectors have joined the initiative, signaling growing corporate engagement in global climate action.
