Corporate Carbon Footprint

Effective climate protection begins with recording the emissions generated within the company. In order to understand the areas in which we can reduce our emissions, following the compilation of our first carbon footprint - Corporate Carbon Footprint (CCF) 2020 - we have now also compiled the CCF for 2021 in accordance with the approved Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHG Protocol). This includes all direct and indirect emissions in Scopes 1 to 3 and provides precise information on the emissions caused throughout the Group.
