CATALYST AWARD | Cuningham

OVERALL AWARD | Northern Trust

The Overall Carbon Champion award recognizes the organization that exemplifies exceptional dedication and impact in more than one category and drives action, educates others and accelerates progress towards meaningfully combating climate change.

All Climate Vault supporters are automatically considered a Carbon Champion, because they have voluntarily taken steps to promote sustainability and reduce their carbon emissions in a science-backed way that has a meaningful impact.  Regardless of the industry our Carbon Champions are in, they all embody these five key characteristics: Strategist, Amplifier, Innovator, Game Changer, and Catalyst. 

The award program celebrates the organizations who have best embodied a specific trait, with a sixth additional Overall Carbon Champion Award being awarded as well. Recipients are selected through an internal panel review and scoring process by the Climate Vault Carbon Champion Review Board.
