Akzo Nobel Carbon Policy, a CSR Program by AkzoNobel


In 2008, AkzoNobel developed a policy relevant to its diverse business portfolio. AkzoNobel developed a "framework for measuring the carbon footprint for products and facilities based on the international Greenhouse Gas Protocol and lifecycle thinking, along with a process to identify and qualify improvement opportunities," according to its 2008 Sustainablity report.

AkzoNobel implements numerous internal activities to reduce green house emmisions, while supporting transparent disclosure. Furthermore, AkzoNobel is a member of the UN Global Compact "Caring for Climate" platform as well as the Prince of Whales Corporate Leader Group on Climate Change Bali (2007) and Poznan (2008) urging action towards an international UN Climate Change treaty at the 2009 Copenhagen Conference.
