Turning Events into Impact: WeWork’s Carbon-Neutral Summits

For the past two years, Climes has partnered with WeWork India as Carbon Neutral Event partner for their Sustainability Summits - a recurring collaboration that turns sustainability into action and redefines events as platforms for impactful climate engagement. We are set to continue this collaboration for the upcoming 3rd Sustainability Summit in September 2025, reinforcing a shared commitment to integrating climate action into every aspect of event planning.

HOW WE DID IT

Calculating Event Emissions

Comprehensive calculation of carbon emissions from attendee travel, hotel stays, venue operations like electricity usage, food consumed, goodie bags and more.

At the Event

Community Climate Action: WeWork empowered participants to decide where the event’s collective impact would be directed - giving them the option to choose from verified climate projects on Climes’ interactive project map. Engaging Attendees: Attendees could calculate and offset their individual carbon footprint through a QR code at registration, adding an interactive and personalised touch to the experience. Live Dashboard: A live dashboard showcased real-time updates on emissions and the collective contributions of attendees who chose to neutralise them.

STEP 1 /

Signing up for Climes LITE

The Baker's Dozen had signed up on the easy-to-use dashboard, a one-stop shop for all their climate needs. The user-friendly platform provided them with access to the impact they had enabled on a monthly and historical basis, the projects their customers were supporting, marketing and communication references, billing and subscription details, along with a host of other features.

Purchasing Climes

STEP 2 /

The Baker's Dozen set aside a monthly climate budget and subscribed to Climes LITE, allowing them to earn Climes within the dashboard. These earned Climes were then used to support a diverse portfolio of carbon avoidance and removal projects across India, such as waste-to-fuel conversion, reforestation initiatives, and clean cookstove adoption in rural communities.

STEP 3 /

Gifting Climes to customers

The Baker's Dozen could create campaigns that generated QR codes or links. These codes and links led customers to a gamified voting page where they could select the project they wanted to support using their gifted Climes. They decided to allocate 500 Climes per customer for this purpose.

STEP 4 /

Communicating the impact

The Baker's Dozen distributed their QR code through a variety of offline and online campaigns. This strategy seamlessly integrated Climes LITE into the customer journey by printing the QR code directly on their product packaging. As a result, The Baker's Dozen achieved a remarkable 100% voting rate month on month.

MatchLog, India’s leading container optimisation platform, is turning empty trips into avoided emissions by enabling the reuse of import containers for export directly. With over 6 years of experience and having matched over 2,00,000 containers, MatchLog has saved over 60mn empty kms and avoided over 36,000 tonnes of CO2.

Climes is helping MatchLog turn every trip a data-driven opportunity for climate action

  • Accurate carbon intelligence for every trip across road, rail, and sea modes to standardise emissions measurement

  • Integrated dashboard view of emissions avoided along with fuel saved, making climate impact as real as cost savings

  • Monthly reporting of emissions avoided embedded into their sustainability disclosures and customer communications that elevate MatchLog’s ESG credibility and market differentiation

Plug-and-Play Carbon Intelligence, Engineered for Logistics

Leveraging our experience in both technological and carbon accounting, we crafted a formula to address the complexities Matchlog faced.

STEP 1 /

Emissions Mapping

Mapped carbon emissions across three modes of transportation — truck, ship, and rail — for all containerised movement.

  • Accurate fuel, distance, and mode-based emissions factors were applied

  • Streamlined into a methodology that fits MatchLog’s product and reporting cycle

STEP 2 /

Carbon Avoidance Framework

Beyond just calculating emissions, we developed a framework to quantify avoided emissions from reduced empty return trips — a core efficiency driver for MatchLog.

  • We used geospatial data (Google Road API) and operational logic to model what emissions would have occurred in a typical empty return scenario

  • Then we benchmarked this against actual optimised journeys, calculating “emissions avoided” per matched container

STEP 3 /

Enabling Climate Storytelling

MatchLog is actively using certified, trip-level carbon avoidance data to elevate ESG disclosures, pitch narratives, and customer conversations — positioning themselves as a sustainability-forward logistics partner.
