Carbon Disclosure Project
Since 2011, ICL has been reporting annually its emissions and efforts regarding climate change to the CDP, an independent non-profit organization dedicated to driving the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. The CDP collects climate change and GHG related data from over 8,000 companies around the world, and serves more than 500 investors holding $100 trillion in assets. The report includes a comprehensive breakdown of ICLs greenhouse gas emissions, reduction targets and initiatives, climate change related risks, opportunities and business strategy, participation in emission trading schemes, external verification and other related topics. See all ICL CDP reports in ‘Sustainability Reports’.
For its 2019 report, ICL received the second-best possible CDP ranking of “A-”, improving from the previous year’s “B” ranking. The 2019 score was best among all Israeli-based companies and tied for best among global fertilizer producers. This achievement recognizes ICL’s advanced climate change management practices and successful endeavors to reduce GHG emissions.
ICL also received the score of “A-“, in the CDP’s sub-ranking, the Supplier Engagement Rating (SER). The SER is based mostly on company efforts to increase awareness of climate change with their suppliers.This achievement was mostly made possible due to the significant expansion in ICL’s sustainable procurement practices in recent years, and most notably ICL’s activity through the comprehensive TfS (Together For Sustainability) supplier engagement program.
