"With Watershed, we went from generic industry averages to a live model of Shopify’s emissions, built on our own data, in a few weeks. It’s opened up a thousand routes to drive down emissions, and given us the confidence to pursue them strategically."
“One of the primary differentiators we saw with Watershed was the capability to get more detailed with our Scope 3 emissions – enabling us to further focus our net-zero plans.”
“While reductions make up the majority of our actions towards Net Zero, we’re also focused on building relationships with best-in-class removal projects to neutralize the remainder of Block's emissions. We leverage Watershed to help with due diligence and curate the very best projects across a wide spectrum of leading CDR categories.”
“For example, when we look at carbon offsets or renewable energy credits, we always seek solutions incorporating environmental justice. And we collaborate with our Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) to leverage our social impact and ESG programs, such as our Equal Air Project.”
“Creating a truly sustainable company has been part of our vision since the very beginning,” he says. “For us, sustainability is really about three things: it's about people, it's about the planet, and it's about profit. You need to make sure that all three of those things are working together in order to make a truly sustainable organization that's going to be around in 100 years, and also has a planet to exist on in 100 years.”
“Watershed allows us to move rapidly and scale solutions in clean energy to fight climate change much more than we could do on our own.”
“Several years ago, Coyuchi set a net zero carbon goal, and Watershed’s support and tools help us measure our impact and make reductions. Using insights from the product emissions module, we are evolving the way we assess suppliers and continuously look at ways we can design and manufacture products in less carbon-emissive ways than before.”
"Our work with Watershed has helped us clarify our part in this work by identifying concrete next steps to reduce our impact.”
“We are grateful for Watershed’s longtime advocacy for permanent carbon removal and their early support of Charm as a supplier in the Watershed Marketplace since 2021. They’ve been a significant entry point to permanent carbon removal for many companies, and we’re thrilled to continue our deep partnership through our engagement with Frontier."
“We're doing a lot of tests and pilots, and we're seeing some really promising results that both reduce emissions and bring value to other parts of our business—which is really, really important to getting buy-in to build the lasting programs that actually shift the way we operate and get integrated into the business.”
“You don’t have to have a baked plan to start the [emissions measurement] process, but you can’t change what you don’t measure. Watershed’s platform has really made it fun and easy for us to dissect and double click into our data with the functional leaders across the organization to learn and tell new stories.”
“To make our 100-year vision come true, we need to not only make commerce better, but take better care of our planet.”
“We chose Watershed because it felt like it could help solve several challenges in one product, versus needing to onboard several expensive consultants and engage with different providers. Having our end-to-end climate program in one platform has driven efficiencies and saved me time, and the hands-on support from the team has been invaluable.”
“A lot of companies are approaching their legal or social impact teams and saying, ‘You're now our environmental expert, go learn!’ We’re thankful to have Watershed as a partner to help us learn and make the right choices for our business."
"The Watershed team helped make the emissions measurement feel more approachable, and helped us channel our energy into concrete goals."
