The comparison of the annual balance sheets shows that significant reductions in CO2 emissions have been achieved, particularly in the areas of cars, electricity and container logistics.

This is the result of the evaluation of our corporate balance sheet according to the methodology of the Green House Gas (=GHG) Protocol Corporate Standard and the GHG Protocol Scope 3 Standard. After the definition of general basic principles (e.g. completeness), possibilities for the organizational delimitation or allocation of greenhouse gases are explained.
Three “scopes” are defined for an operational allocation:

  • Scope 1: Direct greenhouse gas emissions from sources owned or controlled by the company.
    or controlled by the company, e.g. heat, car journeys.
  • Scope 2: energy-related indirect greenhouse gas emissions from the generation
    of electricity, steam, or heating/cooling purchased/m consumed by the company.
    heat/cooling
  • Scope 3: other indirect greenhouse gas emissions, resulting from the company’s
    activities of the company, but come from sources not owned or controlled by the company.
    not owned or controlled by the company; e.g., heat, electricity, waste.

Overall, the share of Scope 1, 2 and 3 greenhouse gas emissions (= GHG) measured against the total amount of emissions in a year has remained fairly constant.
