our commitment to sustainability

Not only do we prioritize working with leaders and innovators in sustainability, we are committed to sustainable practices as a studio. We love to volunteer our time with the Ojai Valley Land Conservancy doing trail maintenance, financially supporting a wide variety of organizations fighting climate change verified by 1% for the Planet, and are Climate Neutral Certified. More information below:

The Disruption Society joins the more than 5,700 members coming together to protect the future of our planet. 1% For The Planet connects members with 6,300 high-impact environmental partners that align with their values and add to their brand story.

“The intent of 1% for the Planet is to help fund these diverse environmental organizations so that collectively they can be a more powerful source in solving the world’s problems.”

— Yvon Chouinard, Founder of Patagonia

We currently support and partner with the following organizations:

The Disruption Society joins over 300 brands earning the Climate Neutral Certified label, demonstrating they have invested to avoid, remove, and reduce all of the carbon emissions from making and delivering their products and services.

Our label, Climate Neutral Certified, is a trusted, independent standard for climate neutrality. It empowers consumers to find brands that are leading on immediate climate action. All companies that get certified must reduce and compensate for all of their emissions from making and delivering products and services. Climate Neutral works with over 400 companies and their label can be found on millions of products worldwide. Join us at climateneutral.org
