Public Kick-Off Symposium of PCF Pilot Project Germany

dm-drogerie markt, FRoSTA, Henkel, Tchibo, T-Home and Tetra Pak today announced their involvement in the Pilot Project for assessing so-called Product Carbon Footprints. Under the project leadership of the WWF, Öko-Institut - Institute for Applied Ecology, the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) and THEMA1, the six companies have launched a joint Pilot Project to assess emissions of CO2 and other greenhouse gases, so-called Product Carbon Footprints (PCFs), for selected products. Together, they are actively promoting the emergence of common standard for assessing Product Carbon Footprints. In view of international developments, the Pilot Project also acts as a forum for discussing how to best inform customers and consumers of product-related life cycle emissions.
