Count Us In

1. As founding partners of Count Us In, our pioneering work has one simple, yet ambitious, aim — to inspire one billion people over the next decade to take action against climate change and reduce their carbon pollution. As a result, we want the globe to reach the formidable target of cutting emissions by 50%.

   We all know how important right now is in order to protect the planet and everyone around us, and our work helps people to make achievable, long-term changes. It includes the Stand Up: Take Action initiative, where we helped break a Guinness World Record for the largest number of people to take action on a single day across the world—273 million people.

   World-renowned organisations including TED, Leaders Quest, IKEA, Arsenal FC, HSBC, FIFA, NHS, C40, BT, WWF, Natura & Co, and the International Olympic Committee are also vital partners helping us in our pursuit of change. Individually we can all make a huge difference, together we can change the world.
