Carbon Offset Disclosure

HigherRing complies with California's Voluntary Carbon Market Disclosures Act (AB 1305), which mandates that companies operating in California publicly disclose detailed information about any voluntary carbon offsets they purchase or use when making claims about achieving "net zero emissions" or "carbon neutrality. Our Carbon Disclosure Policy details are provided by our offset partner Bonneville Environmental Foundation. View more about our reduction efforts on our impact page.
