Cleaner and Greener® is a program of Leonardo Academy, a charitable 501(c)3 nonprofit dedicated to advancing sustainability and environmental stewardship.  We help companies and organizations, families, and individuals reduce air pollution that contributes to climate change and adversely affects both human and environmental health.  We help quantify your emissions footprint, develop strategies for reducing your environmental impact through emissions reductions and offset purchases, and provide Cleaner and Greener® certification for the level of emission reductions and offsets achieved.

The Cleaner and Greener® certification program is targeted to serve buildings, events, companies and organizations by helping them take action to reduce their emissions.  The program provides not only an effective assessment of each entity’s footprint, but also a way for these groups to communicate their positive environmental actions to the public by way of the Cleaner and Greener® Seal.
