The Climate Pledge

The Climate Pledge is a corporate climate initiative co-founded by Amazon and Global Optimism that brings together companies committing to reach net-zero carbon emissions ahead of the Paris Agreement timeline. Established in 2019, it operates as a voluntary coalition of signatories across sectors, with participation centred on shared commitments rather than formal governance structures. The initiative is built around three principles: regular emissions measurement and reporting, implementation of decarbonisation strategies, and use of credible offsets. It functions as a coordination platform, encouraging companies to align climate targets and collaborate on low-carbon innovation and supply chain transformation.
