Climate Action at BE CLIMATE
Our journey to climate neutrality
BE CLIMATE is the first brand to offer CO₂ neutral fruit and vegetables. It was launched in 2019 and is a brand of Port International. We keep our finger on the pulse and have a good grasp of what affects people and markets – being the pioneer who already introduced Organic and Fairtrade products to the fruit industry at the end of the 1990s. Not only the BE CLIMATE products are climate neutral, but also Port International as a company is climate neutral since 2017.Together, we can make a change
BE CLIMATE is the expression of the philosophy by which we have lived for decades: “Partner for Generations”. The entire Port team feels a close connection with all customers and business partners worldwide. We know that only together can we achieve success. In addition, we commit to the careful handling of all natural resources. In other words: We preserve them for the following generations. As a team, we participate in internal challenges such as a “bike-to-work-month” or “Veganuary” to bring more sustainability into our daily lives.
Our goals
We believe that the reduction of CO₂ emissions is the most important factor of climate neutrality. Therefore, we continuously aim to reduce emissions within our company and along the whole supply chain. We aim for a 50% reduction of our scope 1 & 2 emissions until 2030, according to the 1.5 °C target of the Science Based Targets initiative.Transparency
We put our cards on the table. Because climate neutrality needs transparency. We honestly confess that we still have a long way ahead of us, but we promise to walk it with conviction and ensure transparency for everybody. BE CLIMATE offers a QR code or ID number, which every customer can easily use to check the concrete contribution he or she made when they decided to buy our climate neutral products.
