Plan Overview
The 2026 Climate Action Plan establishes Clearinghouse CDFI’s framework for addressing environmental stewardship and climate action across its operations. Developed in support of B Corp standards, the plan outlines how the organization will assess environmental impacts, establish measurable goals, engage stakeholders, and monitor progress over time.
The plan addresses topics including remote-work sustainability practices, resource use, employee training, procurement decisions, and environmental stewardship activities. It also establishes targets related to emissions reduction, sustainability education, and organizational accountability while providing a roadmap for future reporting and review.
