Paris, January 20, 2020 – Atos, a global leader in digital transformation, has been commended for its climate action this year, achieving a place on global environmental impact non-profit CDP's prestigious ‘A List’ for climate change, based on the company’s climate reporting in 2019.
Atos was recognized for its actions to cut emissions, mitigate climate risks and develop the low-carbon economy, based on the data submitted by the company through CDP’s 2019 climate change questionnaire. Atos is one of a small number of high-performing companies out of thousands that were scored.
CDP’s annual environmental disclosure and scoring process is widely recognized as the gold standard of corporate environmental transparency.
A detailed and independent methodology is used by CDP to assess these companies, allocating a score of A to D- based on the comprehensiveness of disclosure, awareness and management of environmental risks and demonstration of best practices associated with environmental leadership, such as setting ambitious and meaningful targets.
Elie Girard, CEO of Atos, said – “Atos is recognized by CDP for the seventh year running for its effort to combat climate change. This recognition reflects our active engagement towards carbon neutral IT. We believe that as a global leader in digital transformation, our role is also to help our customers to better assess the impact of IT systems on climate, and deploy digital solutions powering a low carbon economy.”
Paul Simpson, CEO of CDP, said: “Congratulations to the companies that achieved a position on CDP’s A List this year, for leading in environmental performance and transparency. The scale of the business risks from the climate emergency, deforestation and water insecurity are vast – as are the opportunities from addressing them – and it’s clear the private sector has a vital role to play at this critical time. The A List companies are leading the market in corporate sustainability, tackling environmental risks and setting themselves up to thrive in tomorrow’s economy.”
In 2019, Atos was also recognized as Industry leader by other sustainability ratings companies such as EcoVadis and the DJSI (Dow Jones Sustainability Index).
The Climate Change A List is published by CDP each year, alongside the A Lists for leadership on protecting forests and water security.
