BASF makes it to top flight of Carbon Disclosure Leadership Index
Climate protection: Included in top performers list
"We are proud to be included in this important index. Our excellent ranking confirms that we are on the right track with our climate protection strategy," says Dr. Ulrich von Deessen, Head of the Competence Center Environment, Health and Safety and BASF's Climate Protection Officer. "We shall continue reporting openly and traceably on our progress in this area. In the fourth quarter, BASF will be publishing the updated version of its 'Corporate Carbon Footprint' Report giving full accountability of BASF’s greenhouse gas emissions."
BASF has set itself ambitious goals in climate protection: by 2020, BASF intends to reduce its specific greenhouse gas emissions per metric ton of sales products by 25 percent compared with 2002. Between 1990 and 2002, BASF had already reduced absolute greenhouse gas emissions by 38 percent.
