System Data Center S.p.a has long been actively involved in a transformation process on environmental safeguard, including the cultural promotion of prevention. With the aim to prove a responsible approach towards Environment and climate change, the Management has chose to evaluate own Carbon Footprint, and has undertaken the path of quantification and reporting of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions according to ISO 14064-1 regulation.

This study allows us to reveal the amount of effects produced on the climate by greenhouse gases deriving directly and indirectly from the activities carried out by System Data Center on which it will be possible to intervene with actions aimed at reducing, as far as possible, GHG emissions, also through the implementation of a sustainable consumption model.

Such procedure is focused on the following main goals:

• select GHG sources, data and methodologies conforms to interested parties’ needs;

• include all considered significant GHG emissions;

• Ensure a meaningful comparison of reporting information;

• Reduce uncertainties as much as possible;

• disclose sufficient and appropriate GHG related information to enable interested parties to make decisions with reasonable confidence.
