Climate change is gaining momentum<\/strong><\/p>\n In December 2015, during COP21, the Paris agreement was signed by all the 195 represented countries, who committed to keep temperature rise below 2\u00b0C. This historical agreement shows that the topic of climate change has been gaining momentum over the past two decades, to the point to which all countries acknowledged it was key to curb it.<\/p>\n Countries are not the only players concerned by greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions rising. Indeed, investors are taking such environmental criteria into account when investing. This practice is called Socially Responsible Investment (SRI), which has been increasing for the past years to reach about 11% (\u20ac2 trillion) of all European professionally managed assets.<\/p>\n In this sense, companies also try to influence the practices in their supply chain. Through sustainable procurement schemes, they encourage their suppliers and subcontractors to be more environment and social-friendly, including by reducing their carbon emissions. A renewed partnership with CDP, a key player in carbon disclosure<\/strong><\/p>\n One of the most well-known reporting framework for GHG emissions and climate change is the CDP<\/a>. Through CDP Climate Change Program, investors request the companies to disclose their environmental management system regarding climate change. Through the CDP Climate Change Supply Chain Program, companies can ask their suppliers to report their environmental data and about their approach towards climate change.. DFGE supports these respondents as an official Silver Climate Change Consultancy Partner. Responding companies benefit from DFGE\u2019s expertise in ecology accounting and also from the intense partnership with CDP over the years.<\/p>\n DFGE has been an official Silver Climate Change Consultancy Partner of CDP since 2014, to support companies responding to CDP. DFGE and CDP have now signed a 3-year partnership contract to extend this collaboration. Indeed, DFGE believes that CDP is one of the key drivers in climate change reporting, and thinks that the initiative will keep growing as the topic keeps becoming more important for stakeholders.<\/p>\n A partnership with benefits for all parties DFGE supports companies by providing official response checks following CDP methodology. DFGE can help companies formalize an environmental management system and can assess the carbon footprint of any organization.<\/p>\n \u201cWe believe that more and more SMEs companies will take part in CDP\u201d states Dr.-Ing. Thomas Fleissner, founder of DFGE \u201cWe know that it can be tough to allocate resources to a such technical and international topic, thus we offer to guide them through the process while making sure that they have a quick solution, adapted to their needs.\u201d<\/p>\n The partnership is also the opportunity to strengthen the CDP\u2019s presence and credibility and increases the share of voice and mind in the German speaking region.
