The Connection between Consumer Loyalty and Climate Responsibility
Another day, another study. The dates change, the authors change, but the message is always the same –
- Consumers are unified in their demand that your company prove it is sustainable and part of the climate solution
- And, they are rewarding those that are doing so
This new Harris Poll reports
- 82% of U.S. consumers believe companies have a responsibility to offset their carbon emissions –
Does your company have a carbon emissions program?
Are you prepared for your Scope 3 letter?
Are you using this as an opportunity or ignoring it?
- 79% believe corporations have an obligation to address climate change
Does your company have a 3rd party audited climate change program to promote?
- 73% of Americans believe you should talk about your sustainability efforts
For those that are not certified/verified sustainable, this poses a problem
- 71% of U.S. adults say they are more loyal to companies that take an active role in protecting the environment
Where do you see this level of agreement on any topic?
- 68% of the 18-34 age group will pay more for products from companies that have a strong stance on sustainability and climate change
If you want to take market share, or protect margin, be able to prove you are sustainable
If you want to show consumers you are listening; be part of the solution rather than being part of the problem; and gain a new talking point that resonates, watch this master class and contact us.
Unlimited Auto Wash at Lighthouse Drive in North Palm Beach will pursue Sustainability Certification Compliance
Unlimited Auto Wash at Lighthouse Drive in North Palm Beach, FL, is part of the seven-location Unlimited Auto Wash Club that serves South Florida. Unlimited Auto Wash is a 100% Full Service Hand Car Wash with over 30 employees. It cares deeply about the environment and the community it serves, and has decided to pursue the Edenark Group ISO 14001 environmental sustainability certification program.
The Edenark Group ISO 14001 is the world’s premier environmental sustainability certification program and allows SMEs (small to mid-sized enterprises) the ability to attain the world’s most popular environmental certification standard via a program designed and priced specifically for them. This allows an organization to validate, via 3rd party audit against the world’s top standard, its environmental / sustainability / green / eco-friendly actions.
The program, which allows companies to progressively improve at a pace that works for their needs, helps the organization define how it interacts internally, externally, and with the environment. It incorporates energy/waste/water, employee health and performance enhancement, community involvement, procurement and suppliers, compliance and regulations, emergency/security, and stakeholder engagement. Benefits include creating a culture of continual improvement, stakeholder engagement, lower costs, higher revenues and profits, improved employee performance, and…… doing the right thing for the environment for current and future generations.
“We see a lot of greenwashing and did not want to be part of that,” said Kevin Dalton, CEO of Unlimited Auto Wash. “Many organizations, looking to cash in on consumer demand, claim to be environmentally friendly, but most practice greenwashing by self-auditing or self-certifying or using non-globally-recognized programs. We decided we were going to pursue environmental sustainability the right way. We have seven facilities and are choosing to get all seven certified. The Edenark Group ISO 14001 sustainability certification program provides us that opportunity. This will be wonderful for all our stakeholders; our customers, our employees, our company and our community.”
“When an organization pursues, and attains, the Edenark Group ISO 14001 sustainability certification, they are not just doing it to see their costs go down and revenues and profits go up. They are setting a higher bar for their organization and sending a message to all those around them that may be claiming to be environmentally-supportive, but are in truth greenwashing by not validating their actions under a global 3rd party certification,” says David Goodman, CEO of Edenark Group. “Companies who are agreeing to adhere to the world’s Gold standard for sustainability certification are allowing their actions to be reviewed; are choosing to be a leader and part of the solution, not the problem; and are joining an elite fraternity of over 300,000 organizations, in over 150 countries, that have committed to continually improving in every way.”

2023 will be the hottest year on record. What now?
Per this article, 2023 will be the hottest year on record.
Per the opening chart, September 2023 was not only the hottest September on record, but it was also the largest marginal difference between any prior year’s months, on record.
June was the hottest June; July was not just the hottest July, but the hottest month on record; and August was not just the hottest August, but second only to July in terms of all time ranking.
Per the video imbedded in the attached, scientists were expecting this year would be hot, but not THIS hot.
We are not just getting hotter, but, pardon the pun, Momma Earth is picking up steam. You will never, in your lifetime, experience a summer like you had as a kid. The temperature will continue to go up for a length of time that exceeds many generations into the future.
Our decision, as individuals and as leaders of companies, is to decide if we want to help moderate this rise, and take the pressure off, or if we want to tell Momma Earth, “Let her rip!”
Consumers want your company to be part of the solution. If you would like to consider it, watch this master class and contact us.

We will exceed the +1.5 degree Celsius mark 3 years sooner – in 2029
Per this new study, in early 2029, five years from now, we will hit the tipping point of 1.5 degrees Celsius (2.7 degrees Fahrenheit).
This is three years sooner than previous studies predicted – we are moving faster in the wrong direction.
Once we hit this threshold, the risk of catastrophes increases, as the world will likely lose most of the remaining coral reefs, major ice sheets will melt (accelerated the heat gain by not reflecting the sun’s rays), seas will rise, some areas of the Earth will be difficult to live in, and extreme weather will increase.
We can either give up and let the chips fall, or we can take action and fight for every tenth of a degree.
If you are a fighter, watch this master class and contact us.
