Carbon Footprint and Climate
Change Action Plan There is a growing need for
companies to account for greenhouse gas emissions to
identify, evaluate, manage the risk, and seize
opportunities surrounding climate change. According to
The Conference Board, 75% of companies are actively in
the process of measuring their carbon footprint – a
specific measurement of greenhouse gas emissions within
a defined boundary. Increased demand from major business
customers and stakeholders along with pending government
regulations are accelerating the need for action.
The ERS Global approach produces a customized solution
through the following sequence of steps:
• Carbon footprint – development and analysis of
an inventory through measurement of greenhouse gas
emissions within a defined boundary to understand a
company’s impact
• Short term action plan – a management plan to
reduce emissions, first internally and then externally
with stakeholders
• Long term strategy - includes evaluation of
emission trading opportunities through purchase and sale
of offsets to mitigate impacts that cannot be reduced at
this time
With over ten years of experience in corporate sustainability
strategy development and metrics, ERS Global and our
team of global subject matter experts can help your
company design more sustainable products, cut costs,
and grow revenues. For more information, contact Laura
