About Klimate
At Klimate, we enable companies pursuing real climate action to take responsibility for the emissions they can’t avoid. The world talks a lot about net-zero, but most companies struggle to know what to do once reductions are no longer enough. That’s where we come in. We are a science-led business with real experts guiding companies through the world of carbon removal and how they can safely invest in taking CO₂ out of the atmosphere. Our solution combines expertise, guidance and software to help companies understand what’s real, what works, what it costs, and how to do it credibly.
Founded in 2020, we are now a tight-knit team of just over 20 people from 13 nationalities united by a passion for scaling solutions to the climate crisis. We move quickly when it matters and focus on sharing ownership along the way. Besides working in teams we enable that ownership in squads making it possible for all employees to lead areas, they are passionate about. We value deep collaboration and working side-by-side in our central Copenhagen office, from where we support leading clients including Storebrand, Dalberg, OC&C, and many others.
