SUSTAINABILITY FOR COMPANIES
Reporting of the organisation’s climate-changing emissions, ISO 14064 certification, sustainability reporting, non-financial reporting
At the base of the concept of sustainable development (environmental and economic sustainability) there is the necessity to leave for future generations the same quantity of resources that previous generations had available, guaranteeing an adequate standard of living and possibilities.
“Transforming our world. The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development” is the document adopted at the United Nations Summit of 25-27 September 2015. The document sets the development commitments to be achieved by 2030, identifying 17 objectives (SDGs – Sustainable Development Goals) and 169 targets.
By signing up to the 2030 Agenda, Italy has committed to defining and tailoring this 2030 Agenda objectives in its economic, social and environmental planning.
Reporting of organisation climate-changing emissions
The emissions generated by an organisation can be reported through the GHG (greenhouse gas) Protocol. Emissions are divided into three categories: Scope 1, which includes direct emissions controlled by the organisation; Scope 2, which concerns indirect emissions linked to the production of electricity, steam or heat; Scope 3, which includes indirect emissions from the company’s value chain.
ISO 14064 certification
The UNI EN ISO 14064-1:2019 standard defines the principles and requirements for planning and reporting GHG (greenhouse gas) inventories at organisational level and thus defining a specific carbon management policy aimed at reducing emissions and achieving carbon neutrality. ISO 14064-1 enables the calculation of emissions which can be validated in accordance with ISO 14064-3.
Sustainability reporting
A sustainability report, prepared in accordance with European standards such as ESRS (European Sustainability Reporting Standards) and VSME (Voluntary Standard for SMEs), represents the disclosure of non-financial policies, methodologies, and performance parameters to stakeholders — including investors, employees, clients, and the public. The practice encompasses environmental, social, and governance (ESG) metrics.
Voluntary carbon offsetting
Offsetting CO2 emissions means indirectly reducing the impact generated by an activity on the environment. To achieve this objective there is a voluntary carbon market for the exchange and purchase of VER (Verified Emission Reduction) credits.
Why are sustainability themes important?
In a context of rapid change, companies must increase their resilience and maintain competitiveness in the sectors in which they operate.
This ensures the visibility of initiatives that do not involve individual companies but which affect the entire production chain.
Sustainability is important because we cannot maintain our quality of life as humans or the Earth's ecosystems unless we respect it.
The CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive) introduces detailed transparency obligations on companies: the impact on the environment, the respect for human rights and social standards, all in line with the European Union's ambitious climate objectives.
