Life Cycle, Product Carbon Footprint and Organisational Carbon Footprint analysis are complementary tools for developing sustainability metrics. These services enable nature to be put at the centre of our decisions, while also generating competitive advantages for public procurement, and justification for new production of communications patterns, under a strict social and environmental responsibility strategy.<\/p>\n
UPM\u00bfs participation ensures that the latest scientific and technological advances are applied to these services. The results, therefore, enable a deep understanding of the environmental impact of the system under study to be reached.<\/p>\n
Carbon footprint quantification is key to developing actions for reduction and final offsetting. To do so, depending on the subject of the study, the most recently approved standards will be followed:<\/p>\n
The service covers the need to provide rigorous information given the increase in indicators and content to be drawn up for sustainability reports and non-financial product and organisation information reports. It is also intended to give businesses the ability to generate atmospheric pollutant information that can be used in product verification processes and organisation seeking seals of environmental quality.<\/p>\n
The UPM Carbon Footprint Team consists of professors and researchers from the Universidad Polit\u00e9cnica de Madrid (UPM) with extensive knowledge about climate change and Carbon Footprints. The Team has been carrying out various environmental sustainability studies and activities from numerous perspectives since 2010. From the beginning, its work has been carried out with an undertaking to values of responsibility, quality and commitment.<\/p>\n
The Carbon Footprint services have been carried out in many public and private fields. The graduate professionals are currently giving huge value to big companies, such as Banco Santander, T\u00e9cnicas Reunidas, Prosegur, Bluewolf, Elecnor, Ineco, Tragsa, and Agresta Coop., amongst others. Given the research nature of the team, much of the work carried out is published in research journals, where the contractor has given permission for the results to be disseminated.<\/p>\n
