The report “Radiography 2022: Corporate vulnerability to climate change of the 100 largest companies in Chile”, conducted by SCX and Deloitte, was launched as part of the COP27 that took place recently in Egypt, and analyzes Chilean companies that report their carbon footprint and emissions reductions.
For the study, four dimensions were analyzed: comprehensive measurement and verification; ambitious mitigation commitment; effective emissions reduction; and acceleration via neutralization. Based on them, five companies, out of the one hundred reviewed, managed to qualify in the “highest performance” category. They are ARAUCO, Copec, Sodimac, Viña Concha y Toro and VSPT.
Both subsidiaries of Empresas Copec, which were present in the Chile Pavilion at COP27, were recognized for their tremendous contribution to climate change mitigation.
The progress made by Copec and ARAUCO in this area is consistent with the sustainable development strategy of Empresas Copec and its subsidiaries.
