LUDWIGSHAFEN, Germany, October 28 BASF-SE
LUDWIGSHAFEN, Germany, October 28 /PRNewswire/ -- In this podcast you
will learn how the eco-efficiency analysis helps you to determine how you can
reduce the consumption of energy and materials and how to minimize greenhouse
gas emissions.
Every product leaves some ecological traces behind. But how can you
record all of the relevant ecological criteria involved in the production and
use of a product? This is a question that BASF has already been working on
for many years, and it has developed its own so-called eco-efficiency
analysis for this purpose. The results help you to determine how you can
reduce the consumption of energy and materials and, for example, how to
minimize greenhouse gas emissions. In order to show the contribution the
complete group is making to climate protection, BASF was the first company in
the world to present a comprehensive Corporate Carbon Footprint, which now
has been updated. The bottom line is that when BASF products are used, they
save more than three times as much CO2 as is released by all the BASF
products during their production and disposal.
Listen to the audio reportage with Dr. Ulrich von Deessen (BASF Climate
Protection Officer and Head of BASF Environment, Health and Safety Competence
Center), Dr. Peter Saling (Head of Eco-Efficiency Analysis Department at
BASF), Ed Madzy (Director of Environmental Health and Safety at BASF North
America), Sonia Chapman (Espaco ECO, Sao Bernardo do Campo, Brazil).
BASF Corporate Communications started a regular bilingual Podcast service
in April 2007 to report on BASF's innovations and research and development
activities in an easy-to-understand, informative and entertaining way.
