The Brightspot Story
The name “Brightspot” contains many facets of our company ethos. We strive to lead by example; we aim to be a figurative North Star in the climate-mitigation night sky. And as much as we are excited about tomorrow’s possibilities, we also have great respect for our history.
Brightspot School was a small, one-room school on the Saskatchewan prairie. Several members of the extended Schroeder family attended the school. In 1983, Lorne and Theresa Schroeder adopted the name for their family dairy farm, Brightspot Holsteins. “Brightspot” embodies the passion we have for our deep prairie roots and the special places we cherish.
At its core, our name demonstrates our company’s foundation in education, connection to the land, zeal for the environment, and hope for our families and friends. Together we can build strong communities, a healthier world, and a brighter future.
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
Brightspot Climate is a team of diversely identified individuals whose histories and families span the globe. We value our environment and wish to preserve it for the health and enjoyment of generations to come.
Our team is determined to challenge conventional workplace cultures and practices, following a fundamental guiding principle: change. At Brightspot, change means turning away from many of the traditional ideals often found in consulting workplaces and prioritizing meaningful and impactful work over extensive financial gain.
We work diligently to create and uphold equal opportunity, individual belonging, and work-life balance through our diversity, equity, and inclusion strategy—audited for efficacy against the Global Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Benchmarks.
