Description
Despite industry pushback, a significant number of companies is doing their part to comply with carbon pricing, sustainability targets, and reporting requirements. The latest edition of Europe's Climate Leaders focuses primarily on businesses that have achieved the greatest reduction in their Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions intensity over a five-year period (2017-22). Scope 1 and 2 emissions - “core emissions” - come respectively from a company’s own operations and from the energy it uses, while intensity is defined as tonnes of emissions of CO₂-equivalent per €1mn of revenue.
