Air quality Biodiversity ….. But not always ! Particles inside atmosphere decrease greenhouse effect (about) no carbon nuclear plants generate water eutrophisation. The old dilemma multi-criteria versus mono –criteria A good directed action for one criteria may be very bad for many other criteria Mono-criteria is partial, but (too much?) easier to use and report Difficult comparison of multi-criteria SETAC (Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry) in 2006 : « Oversimplified methods may disinform stakeholders about the environmental implications of products and services and thereby lead to counterproductive results for the environment »

5 1 / Pour personnaliser les références : Affichage / En-tête et pied de page Personnaliser la zone Pied de page, Faire appliquer partout Carbon Footprint for Corporate Environmental Performance. EVALUATE CARBON ENVIRONMENTAL PERFORMANCE IN ORDER TO : Identify corporate risks and opportunities Future regulations (mandatory mitigation, taxes, carbon price) Corporate image Investors’ attitudes and decisions Conduct carbon emissions reductions (directed actions) Inside organization From upstream and downstream activities Construct strategic responses Orientation of activities Choice of suppliers Choice of markets Scope 3 helps a lot !

Best is to use complete scope 1, 2 & 3 GHG emissions inventories. More opened opportunities, monitored risks, directed actions. Big companies already use scope 3 approach Ideas to improve Carbon Environmental Performance: Revision of 14064-1, with, among others, scope 3 requirements Carbon management standards
