Impact Scores
We use research based methods to create 27 different scores that reflect the environmental impact that individual facilities, companies, and regions have on the air, water and land.
Our Impact Scores
Facilities may generate a long list of different pollutants. The layout in these lists makes it difficult to assess the environmental impact of a company as well as to make comparisons. We use research based methods to sort these pollutants and create different scores. Our scores allow us to compare the environmental impact of different facilities and companies. To do so, we take into account the amounts of each pollutant and the evidenced damage generated by each of them.
You can read the definition and scope of each of our environmental impact scores on the banners below (click on the score of your interest to access the info). There is a table with the description and scope of our scores for the facility search category available for you to download. Similarly, there is information regarding the company impact scores and the regional ones available as well.
