“With broader awareness about what’s happening to our communities and planet, most Americans want to find ways to pollute less, and where possible, pick up cost savings and health benefits along the way,” stated Dave Finocchio, CEO and co-founder. “TCD has grown very quickly as a guide to help people find climate-friendly solutions that are right for them and their families. We appreciate this early acknowledgement from Fast Company and look forward to helping tens of millions of Americans take positive climate actions as we all transition to a cleaner and healthier future.”
The Cool Down (TCD) is the first mainstream climate brand and a guide for the millions of Americans transitioning to a cleaner and healthier future.

TCD has established itself as an early leader in the space by cracking the code around mainstream climate content. By utilizing a proprietary data stack, GreenScreen, which integrates quantitative reach and engagement statistics with qualitative classifications around content type, tone, and sentiment, The Cool Down has gone beyond opinion surveys and conventional wisdom to inform its content strategy through ground-level truths about consumer behavior in the climate space: the information people actually seek, the stories they actually engage with, the choices they actually make. The Cool Down is widely distributed across the web, Instagram, and via two weekly newsletters, “Here on Earth,” which provides a weekly dose of brand-new innovation and good news, and “Play It Cool,” a guide to sustainable products and recommendations for your daily life that can make a big impact.
