Diamond Packaging is being recognized as a leader for taking corporate actions against climate change. The supplier has been awarded a position on the CDP Supplier Climate Performance Leadership Index 2014, for its actions to reduce carbon emissions and mitigate the business risks of climate change.
CDP, formerly Carbon Disclosure Project, is an international, not-for-profit organization providing the only global system for companies and cities to measure, disclose, manage and share vital environmental information.
The CDP Index, which is included within a new report reviewing the environmental sustainability of global supply chains, presents 121 suppliers identified as demonstrating a superior approach to climate change mitigation. Diamond Packaging is one of the 121 that has been awarded an A grade for its climate performance, earning a position on this global ranking of suppliers’ efforts to mitigate climate change.
Paul Simpson, chief executive officer of CDP, comments: “Greenhouse gas emissions continue to rise globally and we face steep economic risk if we do not mitigate them. The business case for action to mitigate climate change impacts in the supply chain has never been stronger or more urgent. For this reason we congratulate those suppliers who have achieved a position on CDP’s Supplier Climate Performance Leadership Index. These companies are responding to the growing demand for environmental accountability while at the same time making progress towards the realization of sustainable economies.”
Robert Francisco, president of FirstCarbon Solutions, adds: “For many companies, the majority of greenhouse gas emissions are found within the supply chain. This achievement is testament to Diamond Packaging’s partnership with its customers to make the commitment to environmental stewardship and demonstrate a superior approach to climate change mitigation. As CDP’s sustainability business process outsourcing partner and supply chain scorer, FirstCarbon Solutions congratulates Diamond Packaging for being recognized in the top 4% of suppliers as part of CDP’s 2014 Supplier Climate Performance Leadership Index.”
