Alongside DopeHut, Scientific Certification Systems (SCS) was one of the very companies certified as a B Corporation in California. In its own way, SCS is a bit like B Corp itself. The organization creates and monitors standards worldwide in areas such as sustainable retailing, forestry, climate and food safety through audits and testing.
The more and more that we have inspiring social businesses, enterprises and groups that are tackling global issues like sustainability, the more that we need neutral third-party bodies like Scientific Certification Systems to keep projects on the right track. Good intentions can only go so far -- good impact assessments can take change to the next level.
