Catalysing climate solutions through standards
Trusted, globally recognized standards offer a consistent and harmonized approach to climate action that works across countries and industries. By adopting International Standards, governments and organizations worldwide can:
- Ensure recognition, credibility, and accountability through transparent, verifiable sustainability practices
- Support climate policy with reliable frameworks for mitigation, adaptation and financing
- Foster cohesion between planning, action and reporting on climate initiatives
With its extensive portfolio of standards, ISO provides practical tools to mitigate and adapt to the effects of climate change, turning global climate commitments into tangible, sustainable progress.

Supporting climate policy
International Standards are practical tools for aligning climate policies worldwide. By providing robust frameworks for critical action like mitigation, adaptation and financing, ISO standards make it easier for governments and organizations to cooperate, measure progress and verify compliance across sectors and regions.
Standards supports national and international policy efforts by enabling consistent, comparable and verifiable climate action. This global alignment not only promotes accountability for climate initiatives, but fosters cooperation on an international scale.

Collaborating for greater impact
Global action requires cohesion between planning, execution and reporting on climate initiatives. At ISO, we’re committed to demystifying the complexities of regulations, frameworks and standards, fostering clarity and alignment within the climate ecosystem. We invite sustainability standards setters, as well as reporting and disclosure bodies, to join forces in crafting climate solutions that are not only relevant and interoperable, but also make a lasting impact.
By working together, we can forge a deeper understanding of the standards ecosystem, empowering governments, organizations and policymakers to plan, implement and report on their climate initiatives with confidence.
