In this article, learn about the importance of environmental management in your company and how sustainable practices can reduce costs, increase energy efficiency and attract conscious consumers.
The world is constantly changing and companies need to adapt to new challenges. Preserving the environment is one of these opportunities, and can bring significant benefits to both companies and society as a whole.
ESG, the acronym for Environmental, Social & Governance, has become increasingly important in recent years. Among these three aspects, the “E” for Environmental refers to the company’s environmental management and the impact its activities have on the environment. Adopting sustainable practices and policies can reduce waste and natural resource costs, increase energy efficiency and improve employee satisfaction.
However, adopting sustainable measures not only brings benefits to companies, but also to society in general. Preserving the environment can help to reduce pollution, preserve biodiversity and conserve natural resources. In this way, companies that adopt such practices are contributing to building a healthier and more sustainable future for everyone.
It is important to remember that, in order to be considered sustainable, a company must adopt environmental preservation measures that are in line with ESG guidelines. This includes reducing greenhouse gas emissions, making efficient use of natural resources and properly managing the waste produced by the company. In addition, environmental management is also related to the development of environmentally responsible products and services and raising employee awareness of the importance of preserving the environment.
But preserving the environment is not just a question of economics and commercial benefits. It’s a matter of social responsibility in the sense of preserving the environment and protecting natural resources for future generations. By preserving the environment, companies are investing in a better and more sustainable future. They are contributing to the creation of a fairer and more balanced world, where everyone has access to healthy natural resources that are essential for human survival.
For readers interested in environmental preservation and sustainability projects, the Brigada Carcará project was an innovative initiative in which, in partnership with Pif Paf and SAP Brasil, the LPJ Group developed a georeferencing, image recording and real-time data platform that is helping the Brigada Carcará to fight forest fires, rescue bees and plant trees in an extensive reforestation program. Based on the SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP) and the SAP HANA in-memory database, the platform enables the Carcará Brigade to achieve its objectives more efficiently and accurately. Find out more about this pioneering initiative and how the technology is helping to preserve the environment here, and watch the video made available by SAP Brazil about the technology developed.
