A purpose-driven solution
Chez TERO nous sommes conscients que chaque action que nous entreprenons que ce soit dans chaque pôle d’activité, sur un site ou département, a une influence sur l'environnement dans lequel nous développons nos activités. Nous savons maintenant qu'il y a des choses que nous faisons bien et d'autres que nous faisons mal... Cela nous motive à être dans une quête d'amélioration constante afin d'être une entreprise responsable et à avoir un impact positif sur la société et l’environnement !
« On amène une vrai réflexion sur la manière dont on opère et le bilan carbone nous a aidé à comprendre nos incohérences »
Arthur Lhoist, Chief Impact Officer at Tero Group.
With an action plan that makes a difference
Tackling climate change is an everyday battle that might seem overwhelming. However, this ambitious goal becomes the most likely scenario once businesses work together in the same direction.
Once Tero Group measured their greenhouse emissions and understood their actual impact as a whole, designing an action plan was just as straightforward. The next step was to set ambitious targets to reduce their footprint and connect with the right partners to make it possible. Now Tero Group is taking part in cutting the world's emissions to zero.
About Tapio’s Methodology. How does carbon reporting work?
Human activities since the industrial revolution have led to the appearance of new sources of GHGs. Tapio’s all-in-one carbon management solution allows you to estimate the amount of industrial emissions (aka. anthropogenic greenhouse gases) emitted by the activities of your company or organisation.

Understanding the carbon footprint as a whole
The first step to compute a carbon report is to target and characterize the possible sources of GHGs emission from the organization. To do so, must be fixed beforehand by the reporting company.
Then, the breakdown of total carbon emissions by scope helps Tero Group highlight the different hotspots that drive its carbon emissions. To address a problem, you need to be able to understand and measure it.

Some metrics to make things simpler
Having an absolute number is complex and most of the time, meaningless. One good way to know where you stand and the way you are headed is to understand your carbon footprint in terms of intensity per employee allowing to track improvements over time even if the company grows.
For Tero Group, the intensity related to several metrics can be found below.
