Climate Change Mitigation

Why act now on your greenhouse gas emissions?

Global warming has already exceeded the symbolic threshold of +1.5 °C compared to pre-industrial levels. To meet the Paris Agreement, the European Union aims to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 55 % by 2030.

Every organization, public or private, must contribute to this collective effort by reducing its own emissions.

For companies, acting on mitigation is not only an obligation—it is also a lever for resilience, competitiveness, and credibility.

Climate mitigation: a financial, regulatory, and reputational issue

Rising costs

In France, the cost of climate-related damages reached nearly €10 billion in 2022. Floods, droughts, and wildfires are already disrupting value chains. Reducing your emissions also helps limit exposure to systemic risks and business interruptions.

Increasingly strict regulations

In mainland France, Article L 229‑25 of the Environmental Code requires companies with more than 500 employees to carry out a greenhouse gas emissions assessment (BEGES or carbon footprint) every four years. More broadly, the CSRD strengthens climate and biodiversity reporting obligations, pushing organizations to structure a low-carbon trajectory.

A matter of reputation and market access

80 % of French citizens expect brands to engage on environmental issues. This reflects societal expectations for reducing the emissions of economic actors. Acting accordingly strengthens your reputation, builds stakeholder loyalty, and opens access to markets subject to ESG criteria.

A direct link with biodiversity

Climate and biodiversity are inseparable:

Warming accelerates habitat and species loss.
Ecosystems act as natural carbon sinks, playing a key role in climate regulation.

Reducing your emissions therefore also contributes to preserving the ecological balances on which your activity depends.

Companies: mitigation levers to reduce emissions

The starting point is the carbon footprint: measuring your emissions to identify major sources. From there, several levers are available:

Reduce energy consumption and switch to renewable sources.
Optimize processes and logistics to limit avoidable emissions.
Rethink procurement and supply chains, which often concentrate the bulk of impacts (Scope 3).
Integrate climate & biodiversity into a global strategy to avoid impact transfers.

Tailored climate & biodiversity support

Blooming supports you to:

Conduct a comprehensive carbon footprint (Scopes 1, 2, and 3).
Define a climate & biodiversity strategy aligned with your challenges and regulatory obligations.
Develop and deploy a low-carbon transition plan tailored to your organization.
Identify synergies between climate and biodiversity to maximize benefits and avoid unintended side effects.

Reference frameworks and standards

Climate change mitigation relies on increasingly structured reference frameworks.

Key examples include:

CSRD, which requires detailed climate reporting.
SBTi, which validates science-based low-carbon trajectories.
EU Taxonomy, which defines activities considered sustainable.

These frameworks go beyond mere compliance: they now determine access to markets and sustainable financing.
