Communicating about sustainability within the company

For sustainability measures to succeed, employee awareness and cooperation is essential. By using the data visuals and tables from the Envirometer, your employees can:

• Become aware of the impact of the various business activities (see Baseline measurement)
• Think about possible ways to reduce impact for activities with a high impact
• Step up the pace if it appears that the targets are not being achieved (see Monitoring and making adjustments)
• Assess the impact and progress towards reducing the impact, for example in a management meeting

Communicating about sustainability with external parties

An increasing number of external parties, like customers and clients for example, expect your company or organisation to work on sustainability matters. Occasionally external parties ask for sustainability data like a company’s carbon footprint. With the data visuals and tables from the Envirometer you can tell external parties about:

• The environmental impact or carbon footprint of your company or organisation
• Your progress towards the set sustainability targets

Options for communication with the Envirometer

You can choose from various options for communicating with the Envirometer, depending on your objective and target group:

• reports
• published carbon footprint
• data visuals to use in communications

Reports

With the PDF report generator you can quickly create a clear and immediately usable Envirometer report: you can show to interested parties. The report is available in five formats. You choose the elements (charts, graphs, tables, lists) that will be included in the report. You can also export your data to Excel.

Publishing your carbon footprint

You can download the data visuals and tables separately and add them to:

• internal and external annual reports

• your sustainability webpage
