5 reasons why you should strive to achieve net zero emissions

1. Strengthen your brand. Green companies appeal to the growing environmentally conscious market. Products produced sustainably by companies with green commitments are valued more highly by consumers and can differentiate you from your competitors, giving you a competitive advantage.
2. Increase revenue. By changing the behavior of your business towards energy consumption and emission-producing activities, you will reduce inefficiencies and increase cost-effectiveness, thereby increasing your revenues.
3. Be consistent. We are moving towards a low-carbon economy, with governments introducing or proposing to introduce climate regulations and emission restrictions. By aligning your business strategy with carbon emission standards, you will reduce the risk of possible future carbon taxes and penalties for non-compliance with these new regulations.
4. To reassure and attract investors . Measuring and reporting your carbon footprint and emission reduction strategies increases the transparency of your business to your investors and shareholders. This, together with the added considerations of emissions-compliant corporate social responsibility, can be attractively aligned with investor demands and drive their decision-making.
5. Save the environment. Reducing your carbon footprint or becoming carbon neutral benefits the environment by reducing the negative impact you have on it. Participating in the movement towards a greener Earth also inspires others to do the same, thus cumulating the positive effects of carbon sequestration and carbon reflection.

Quantifying and understanding your carbon footprint is therefore the first step to building a sustainable strategy that will leave a positive and greener footprint on your environment. (AI) DGB group
