E-KEY FIGURES
BEFORE YOU START
Hi, my name is Sofie Nellemann and I work as a consultant at Hansen & Ersbøll Agenda with a focus on ESG and the environment. I help you through your data collection and reporting on your environmental key figures.
On this page, you will work with environmental data such as CO2, biodiversity, waste and pollution – important indicators of how your company is impacting nature and the planet. This data is often requested by customers and stakeholders, and it is also an area where many companies want to improve and communicate their results. Therefore, it is important to have accurate figures and documentation to avoid greenwashing.
Along the way, there will be help videos for each environmental theme that will guide you through the necessary steps.
ENERGY AND C02 EMISSIONS
The first section on the E-page is about energy and CO2 emissions, which are central to sustainability work. Greenhouse gas emissions affect climate change, and many companies start their sustainability journey by calculating their CO2 footprint. You will calculate Scope 1 and Scope 2 footprints, which cover direct and indirect emissions from own production and purchase of energy.
If you have already calculated your CO2 account, you can simply insert the numbers here. Otherwise, click on the videos below and open klimakompasset.dk in a new tab to get started. There are help videos for all steps in the klimakompasset, so you can calculate your company's CO2 footprint.

AIR, WATER AND SOIL POLLUTION
Pollution is an important environmental topic that deals with the substances your company releases into the air, water or soil that can harm nature. However, CO2 and greenhouse gases are not part of this section.
First, you need to assess whether the company already reports pollution to authorities or an environmental management system such as EMAS or ISO 14001. If so, you need to indicate which types of pollution are emitted and how many kg are polluted in the air, soil or water. If necessary, contact the sustainability or environmental department for help.
However, only the largest and most polluting companies are required to report – typically within the food industry, aquaculture and industry.
Does the following apply to your company?

Does the company report pollution in advance to either:
a) Authorities, as a result of legal requirements
b) An environmental management system that your company uses, e.g. EMAS.

BIODIVERSITY
Biodiversity is about the diversity of life and is essential for healthy ecosystems that ensure clean air, fresh water and healthy soil.
First, you need to assess whether your business is located in or near a biodiversity sensitive area. If so, please provide the location name and other relevant information. Use the provided map links to identify biodiversity areas under the “i”.
Then you must fill in data about land use, fortified areas and nature-oriented areas.
Contact a property manager, operations manager, or someone in the administration or finance department who may have insight into property valuations and have calculations of the company's total area.
Does the following apply to your company?

WATER
In this section, you should focus on both water withdrawal and water consumption. Water withdrawal refers to water that is temporarily used and returned to the sewer, while water consumption is water that is not returned, e.g. through evaporation or as part of products. Start by finding your water withdrawal data from your water meter or bill. You should also enter whether you have a water withdrawal from locations with a lack of water, also known as high water stress. In Denmark - right now - we do not have any areas with high water stress.
If your company uses water in production, you must also calculate water consumption by including collected rainwater and subtracting wastewater.
Here, ask the operations manager, property manager, or a colleague in the finance department or production to collect your data.

CIRCULAR ECONOMY
Circular economy is about using the earth's resources efficiently so that they last longer and can be used again and again or transformed into new products.
To start this section, you need to answer whether your company works with a circular economy. If so, you can describe the company's approach, for example through recycling, repair or products designed to circulate. So this section is not about numbers, but about writing some descriptions. Make them as short, concrete and precise as possible.
Think about concrete initiatives such as canteen recycling of food scraps, product repair or protection of natural resources. Think about what might be relevant and who you could ask who works with some of these things.

RESOURCE CONSUMPTION AND WASTE MANAGEMENT
In this section, you must document how your company handles waste, both hazardous and non-hazardous waste. You can choose to list the waste individually or group it under one category and indicate the total amount. Remember to indicate how much is reused or recycled and how much is sent to incineration or landfill.
In the second part, you need to consider whether your company works with material flows of, for example, raw materials and input materials. This is especially relevant for construction and manufacturing companies. To get the necessary data, you can talk to the operations manager, waste management company or purchasing department.
Once you have collected this data, you are done on the E-page. You can always come back and update later.
