Comment: Apart from the clear conflict of interest - fails WP:GNG, requires significant coverage in multiple independent secondary sources. The Everclime website is a primary source. Dan arndt (talk) 03:17, 22 December 2023 (UTC)
Impact Certificate[edit]
An impact certificate[1] is a digital receipt providing evidence of the tangible impact resulting from a specific sustainability action or initiative. This certificate serves as proof of the positive outcome funded. The impact associated with an impact certificate can include a wide range of activities aimed at delivering sustainability action, conservation action, and social responsibility action.
Examples of impact that may be acknowledged through an impact certificate include, but are not limited to:
- Tree Planting:[2] The planting of trees contributes to carbon sequestration, biodiversity conservation, and overall environmental health.
- Plastic Removal from the Ocean:[3] Activities focused on removing plastic waste from oceans play a crucial role in reducing the detrimental effects of marine pollution.
- Carbon Offsetting:[4] Initiatives that reduce or offset carbon emissions contribute to the fight against climate change. This can involve supporting renewable energy projects, reforestation efforts, or other activities that counterbalance carbon emissions.
- Kelp Planting:[5] Planting kelp can contribute to marine ecosystem restoration, enhance biodiversity, and serve as a carbon sink.
The impact certificate, being a digital proof, typically includes details such as the nature of the impact, the specific project or initiative involved, the date of the activity, and any relevant metrics or measurements. These certificates are increasingly utilised in the context of corporate social responsibility (CSR), sustainable development, and environmental conservation efforts.
By providing a transparent and traceable record of the positive outcomes achieved, impact certificates play a crucial role in fostering accountability, encouraging sustainable practices, and motivating individuals and organisations to actively contribute to the betterment of the planet and society.
Everclime[6] is a for-purpose sustainability platform, that pioneered the concept of Impact Certificates to unlock funding to empower businesses and individuals to contribute to environmental conservation and sustainability in a trusting and transparent way.
