Mission Climate

our CONTRIBURTION TOWARD DECARBONIZED LOGISTICS

Climate change presents us all with major challenges - ecologically, socially and also economically. We at BLG LOGISTICS want to play our part in limiting to global warming in line with the Paris Climate Agreement. We are concentrating our commitment in "Mission Climate", our path toward decarbonized logistics. 

Together, we are on a mission to protect the climate. BLG LOGISTICS supports the 1.5-degree target of the Paris Agreement.

To achieve this target, we will reduce our own emissions significantly by 50,4 percent (Scope 1+2), and we will cut those caused outside the company through our business operations by 30 percent (Scope 3). Both are absolute targets – in other words irrespective of how strongly we grow. 

REDUCING EMISSIONS: THESE five LEVERS WILL HELP US ACHIEVE OUR GOAL

The right partner – also when it comes to protecting the climate

The emissions that we produce are also included in the calculation of our customers’ carbon footprint. We know that they – just like many other companies in the supply chain as well as ourselves – are looking for ways to safeguard the climate within the scope of their business activities. This makes it all the more important for us to be a good partner to them in this respect as well. All the better, therefore, that our Mission Climate has a positive impact on their environmental track record. In addition to the direct, absolute savings achieved through our own processes, we offer to calculate emissions on a customer- and service-specific basis upon request and are open to collaborative projects. Together, we are shaping the decarbonized logistics of tomorrow.

Scientifically-based commitment

It is important to us that our mission demonstrably benefits the climate. That is why we are having our goal – to reduce emissions in absolute terms – scientifically assessed and certified by the independent Science Based Targets initiative. The SBTi is a collaboration of leading non-governmental organizations that champions science-based emission reduction target setting.

The overall objective is to limit global warming to well below 1,5°C compared to pre-industrial levels, in line with the Paris Climate Agreement. Our commitment makes us one of the leading international logistics service providers in this area.
