The Business Case for Strategic GHG Management

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is about doing good business. Reducing social and environmental externalities saves costs and allows for a more open communication with your stakeholders, customers, employees and the public.

CSR is profitable. If a company is to ensure its long-term success in a competitive business environment, it needs to understand and manage its greenhouse gas (GHG) risks. Implementing innovative sustainable solutions is your competitive edge in differentiating your brand – so you can continue to do good business.


Cost Savings


Managing your GHG emissions will enable your business to improve your energy-efficiency performance and reduce your energy use – which directly translates into savings.


Investor Relations


Climate change related risks affect the value and the long-term performance of your business. Initiatives such as the Carbon Disclosure Project are increasingly pushing the issue onto the agenda of professional asset managers and private investors alike.


Brand Value


Whether you are looking to reposition your brand or re-engage your customers, your marketing department goes great lengths to establish a positive brand identity. Your environmental strategy can support your message by inspiring both new and existing customers.


Green Business Partners


An effective climate neutral strategy differentiates you as one of the top companies able to meet the demands of the increasing number of eco-conscious consumers, suppliers and shareholders.


Staff Engagement


Employees of environmentally friendly companies display more loyalty towards their employer, hold more favorable views of senior management, and are more likely to recommend their company as an employer of choice.


Future Legislation


Companies that embrace the climate challenge today can benefit from favorable legislation for early action, build capacities and gain experience in emissions trading, as well as secure a steady carbon credit pipeline.
