GC&P Loves the World

GC&P is committed to become a zero emission company by 2015

During 2011 we have started a process with the ambitious goal to become a firm with zero environmental impact within the next three years.

The steps of this process are as follows:

1. In June 2011 we released a procedure for a “sustainable office” and we all are committed to apply it.

2. In July 2011 we were granted an ISO14000 certificate.

3. Since the beginning of 2011 we have added to our management accounting system a few indicators concerning CO2 emissions, fuel consumption, energy consumption, paper used. By means of these indicators we measure the level of our progress.

4. We are especially committed to lower CO2 emissions due to our activities. Presently our most significant impact on the environment is due to the emissions of our motor drives to reach our clients’ places. Today we produce 20 Kilos of CO2 per chargeable day, but we plan to go down to 15 Kilos by the end of 2012 and to 12 Kilos by the end of 2013.

5. It is our objective to consume in our office less Energy per year than the average European family.

6. We plan to buy and use no more than 10 kilos of recycled or certified paper per year.

7. We have plans to instruct our people on the principles of environmental sustainability

8. We will do the same with our suppliers

9. We will do our best to get the EMAS certificate during 2012 and we will undertake, with a public statement, to continue our commitment to environmental sustainability.
