Carbon footprint
Competition, sustainability and the environmental friendliness of the supplied products all depend on the carbon footprint formed by companies, in short the volume of their greenhouse gas emissions. Consumers and investors pay close attention to this and the Russian Federation and European countries, at the legislative level, require manufacturers to reduce it. Thus it is vital for businesses to have an effective emission management system.
Carbon Footprint of Products
In order to manage your carbon footprint, you first need to estimate your greenhouse gas emissions.
Plant emissions are estimated in the following three areas:
- Direct emissions from facilities owned by the company.
- Acquired indirect energy emissions in the production of heat and electricity acquired by the company.
- Other indirect emissions incurred during the extraction and production of raw materials and fuel, during the transportation of products, during the activities of contractors, etc.
Regulation of the Carbon Footprint
Controlling the carbon footprint left by the production of products at all stages allows for:
- Conducting an inventory of greenhouse gases,
- Developing projects aimed at reducing emissions,
- The development of projects to increase emission absorption.
Reducing the carbon footprint of production is carried out according to the following scheme:
CDP
In addition to taking measures to regulate the company's carbon footprint, international reporting is also important. The Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) is the world’s most respected independent non-profit organization in the sphere and maintains the world's largest database of greenhouse gas emissions from companies.
By participating in the CDP Project, companies will receive significant advantages: a higher level of attractiveness to investors, the opportunity to take a leading position in solving climate problems and supporting an image of a reliable partner and supplier. Together with our experts, you will be able to prepare your CDP survey responses professionally and fully.
