Partner With Carbon Switch

Carbon Switch works with mission-driven organizations to promote and accelerate the adoption of climate solutions. To talk to someone on our advertising team, you can email partnerships@carbonswitch.com 

Who we work with

We work with organizations that are building the solutions we need to reach zero-emissions by 2050. Here are the types of companies we do and don’t work with:

We work with companies that

  • Build and sell products that help people live more sustainably
  • Incorporate climate action into both their internal operations and the products and services they sell
  • Are committed to diversity, equity and inclusion

We don’t work with companies that

  • Haven’t set science-based emissions reduction targets
  • Aren’t committed to a just energy transition
  • Lobby against climate policy

Carbon Switch can reject sponsorships for any reason, including but not limited to quality, reputation, controversy, or legal grounds.

Types of partnerships

Branded content

Carbon Switch’s brand studio works with partners to create engaging content that promotes decarbonization and sustainability. This includes data-driven reports, eBooks, longform articles, and other types of content. Brands can publish this content on their site or partner with us to promote it on Carbon Switch’s site.

Budgets for these engagements generally range between $15,000 and $50,000.

In order to maintain editorial independence and integrity, this content is produced by a separate team of writers, editors, and designers than the editorial team that produces our guides, reports, and reviews. 

Nothing is more important to us than building trust with our readers and editorial honesty. When we publish branded content, we disclose the advertising relationship to our audience. 

Referral program

Carbon Switch has built an audience of readers committed to taking climate action. Many of them read our content while looking for products and services that can help them live more sustainably. 

We partner with companies we believe in to send high-quality leads and potential customers. The rate we charge for these referrals varies depending on the product and market. 

Sponsorships and display advertising

Our audience reads our guides before they make purchases, ranging anywhere from a few hundred to tens of thousands of dollars. We partner with companies to help promote climate solutions that can make our readers’ lives better. 

Affiliate advertising 

After our editorial team writes independent reviews of products, we sometimes add affiliate links to the products included in the article. 

This affiliate advertising doesn’t affect our reviews in any way. In many cases we write about products that don’t have affiliate programs, because they are simply the best product, or because they can help our readers live more sustainably. In some cases we recommend that our readers don’t buy any product at all. This will never change.
