ONDD is a specialist through and through, and a point of reference in the sector, and we wanted to define a professional focus in our CSR policy. C-Change helped us to find this focus and to align our CSR policy with our traditional corporate goals.

"I'm converted"
The conversion took place Saturday in Maastricht, at an annual meeting of Flemish CEOs that the is named "Leaders meet and greet '. The man who converted me is one of the first "disciples" of Al Gore, Serge de Gheldere.

Why
What is the situation today?
Climate change is happening faster and more intensely than expected. Carbon emissions have risen faster than the most pessimistic scenario published in the third IPCC report. This is arguably one of the most severe crises that humanity is facing and it is tightly interwoven with other crises such as water shortages, loss of biodiversity, a dangerous disparity of resource appropriation within and between nations, persistent pockets of severe poverty, decline of arable soil, etc.
At Futureproofed we are convinced that this crisis is an opportunity: emissions can be reduced without damaging prosperity in either the developed or developing world. To counter threats of climate change we need to improve by a factor 10.
