The EDQM offsets its 2010 CO2 emissions
As part of its Environmental Management System, the EDQM is taking part in reducing greenhouse gas emissions by compensating CO2 emissions resulting from shipments made through DHL GOGREEN. This project aims to calculate all the CO2 emissions resulting from its shipments to then compensate these emissions with schemes such as the installation of solar panels in emerging countries, investments in new technologies, and reforestation projects in Asia and South America.
The EDQM offset a total of 58.79 t of CO2 in 2010 through this programme.
NEW: the EDQM has started to offset its CO2 emissions generated from the transportation of its waste. This new initiative aims at supporting sustainable development projects.
