Who are climate conscious consumers? Not who you’d expect, says Northwind Climate

Everyday data can hold surprises, like the insights found in a category of consumers known as “climate doers” by Doug Rubin’s startup, Northwind Climate. These consumers prioritize climate-friendly purchases, despite stereotypes that might suggest otherwise.
Interestingly, Rubin revealed that the climate doers category includes frequent visitors to fast food restaurants and a significant percentage of Republicans. This information stemmed from Rubin’s background in the political world, where surveys play a crucial role in understanding public sentiment.
Northwind Climate, which recently secured a $1.05 million pre-seed round, takes a unique approach to consumer classification. Rather than relying on traditional demographic segmentation, the startup analyzes survey responses for behavioral cues.
Aside from climate doers, Northwind Climate has identified four other behavioral groups related to climate change attitudes, ranging from the climate distressed to climate deniers. Rubin emphasized the importance of tailoring messages to resonate with each group, even those skeptical of climate change.
Northwind’s insights extend to electric vehicles, offering tailored messaging suggestions for different consumer groups. By understanding consumers’ perspectives, the startup aims to help automakers effectively communicate the benefits of EVs to diverse audiences.
Through a robust database of survey responses and ongoing industry-specific surveys, Northwind provides valuable data for companies looking to connect with their target audience. The platform’s subscription model allows for customization and in-depth analysis, empowering businesses to make informed decisions.
In an era of increased consumer awareness, Northwind remains committed to helping brands navigate the complex landscape of climate-conscious consumers. By leveraging data-driven insights and innovative tools like virtual focus groups, the startup aims to bridge the gap between companies and environmentally conscious customers.
