If you are an SMEs, NfPs and Social Enterprises who has committed to a genuine Earth+ approach and is making a positive impact this Mark is for you.
The Earth+ Mark of Excellence recognises organisations who are connected to our Earth, making products &/or services that have a positive impact across all aspects of their business.
An Earth+ (Earth Positive) organisation makes products or services that ensure that people and the environment flourish from end to end and are the leaders in future markets with their regenerative thinking and action. It is different to mainstream sustainability and extractive approaches that can allow an organisation to largely continue as before, without challenging their full impact or making major and necessary shifts.
The Earth+ Mark will recognise your work and contributions to:
- Addressing need
- Minimisation of consumption
- Contribution to Earth & communities
To achieve the Earth+ Mark you will need to have an Earth+ assessment, which comprehensively reviews your organisation across all areas, from how you formed to your latest impact*. There is a cost for the assessment, however, we have minimised this and is far below comparable assessments/reports of this kind (approx. NZ$1,500-$5,000 depending on organisation size).
Organisations that achieve good practice or excellence in their assessment will be recognised in the annual Earth+ Mark of Excellence Awards and Earth+ Good Practice Guide.
If you would like to be considered for the Earth+ Mark please contact us on [email protected].
We will carry out an initial free review to see if you are at the assessment standard. If you are, we will then arrange with you an Earth+ Assessment with timings that minimise disruption to your operations.
*Assessments include a full review of governance, operations, customer/client engagement, full cost of impact, community, environmental & regenerative engagement.
