– methane (CH4)
– nitrous oxides (N20)
– hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs)
– perfluorocarbons (PFCs)
– Sulfur hexafluoride (SF6).
– ammonia (NH3)
– NMVOCs
– sulfur oxides (SO2 and SO3)
– carbon monoxide (CO)
– oxides of nitrogen (NOx).
– PM10
– PM2.5
– Cadmium (Cd)
– Copper (Cu)
– Lead (Pb)
– Zinc (Zn)
– Dioxins and furans (PCDD / F)
– Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs)
– Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs)
– Radioisotopes
– Nitrates
– Phosphates
– Mercury
– Aluminum
– Arsenic
– Pesticides
– Surfactants
– oil and derivatives…
How to obtain the Blue planet Label:
Companies and communities that would like to be part of this adventure will follow the four core steps:
– Register to the Blue Planet label
– Assess its environmental footprint on Year N and N-1 with the help of the Blue Planet label team (Measuring)
– Monitor the evolution of the environmental footprint with our help (Reducing)
– Obtain the Blue Planet Label with a specific level (Bronze, Silver or Gold) depending on the evolution
When we evaluate the environmental footprint, we use Kg/product or Kg/customer as a unit of measurement.
Basics for measuring:
· Businesses must measure their entire direct environmental footprint. We consider as entire direct environmental footprint the pollution generated by activity of the company (examples: car fleet, employee commuting, gas or oil warming system, chemical transformation, …)
· Pricisely measuring the entire footprint is particurlarly difficult. This is one of the major reason for inaction. We consider that perfection is impossible, but reasonable estimation can be done without major difficulty.
Basics for reducing:
· Businesses must commit to a medium minimum reduction effort of 1,5% every year to obtain at least the Blue Planet Label Bronze level.
· We advise businesses to choose their priorities. Reduction opportunities vary widely across economic sectors. We help businesses identify the most suitable efforts for their activity.
Basics for Labeling
· Once a business or community has done the first 3 steps, they can obtain the Blue Planet Label with a specific level (Bronze, Silver, Gold) for their activity This label empowers consumers to make the good choice but also increase the value of the organization for their stakeholders.
