(14/02/24) ATR has received a B-score from CDP Climate
Change, formerly known as the Carbon Disclosure Project, after
disclosing its environmental impact for the first time.
Annual
CDP scores are considered a global benchmark underlining the
maturity and robustness of companies’ actions to lower and
mitigate the impact of their activities on the environment and
climate change.
ATR’s data joins one of the most comprehensive inventories
of self-reported environmental data in the world, helping drive
action against climate change through greater transparency.

“We strongly believe that true progress towards a
sustainable future comes from relentless self-assessment and a
commitment to international, science-based standards,” said Nathalie Tarnaud
Laude, ATR’s Chief Executive Officer. “As we
submitted our decarbonisation roadmap to SBTi and received
approval for our near-term emissions reduction targets, we wanted
to go even further. Embracing transparency and accountability at
every level is the foundation of a sustainable business. We want
to lead by example and inspire our entire industry, including our
supply chain. It is only through collective efforts that we can
transform our net-zero aspirations into a tangible reality for
generations to come.”
CDP’s
scores range from A to F and are attributed on the basis of the
exhaustiveness of the disclosures and the organisation’s
environmental risk mitigation performance.
Additional criteria
include environmental awareness and leadership and the organisation’s record of setting ambitious, meaningful
environmental objectives.
“With over 23,000 businesses disclosing through CDP this
year, it is clear that sustainability – and the data that
underpins it – is not a ‘nice to have’, but an essential part of
long-term success in the business community that is showing no
sign of slowing down, and nor should it,” said Sherry Madera,
Chief Executive Officer at CDP. “A 1.5° future is still
possible if the global community works in lockstep to get there.
By sharing their environmental data with CDP, ATR is continuing an
environmental journey that will contribute to keeping that future
in sight.”
