Whistl Maintains CDP Status Engaging Its Suppliers on Climate Change

For the second consecutive year, Whistl has maintained its status as a global leader in engaging with its suppliers on climate change. Whistl has been assessed by CDP, which runs the global environmental disclosure system. Each year, CDP supports thousands of companies, cities, and regions in measuring and managing their risks and opportunities related to climate change, water security, and deforestation.

CDP has once again recognised Whistl for the actions and strategies it has taken and plans to implement, aiming to reduce emissions and manage climate risks, both within Whistl and across its supply chains, over the past reporting year.

Over 9,600 companies were assessed by CDP in 2020. The assessment is based on answers to selected questions about governance, targets, scope 3 emissions, and value chain engagement in their response to the CDP climate change questionnaire. Their overall CDP climate change score is also taken into consideration. Whistl is one of 396 companies on the CDP Supplier Engagement Leaderboard this year.

Within the company, the leading causes of C02 emissions arise from their commercial fleet.  Whistl invests annually in its vans and bulk fleet to enhance fuel efficiency and reduce emissions. Other initiatives include investing in Transport Management Systems and telematics across the entire fleet to monitor and review mileage, as well as collections, and to embed more efficient driving techniques into the teams’ operations.

Congratulations to all the companies on the 2023 CDP Supplier Engagement Leaderboard. They are demonstrating leadership by engaging their suppliers to manage climate risk and reduce emissions.
