透明足跡(Thaubing Foorprint)是台灣的環境團體綠色公民行動聯盟的一個工作小組,我們透過推動環境資料的透明公開,將企業的污染排放與環境違規紀錄攤開檢視,並從中找出政府環境治理的不足,開啟民間與企業、政府的三方對話。以資料為基礎強化環境治理,並將公開的環境資料彙整於「透明足跡」網站,讓全民共同參與環境的監督。
在2021年,因應全球推動 ESG、永續轉型、綠色金融的浪潮,為了實際檢視企業是否真的朝向永續的目標發展,我們擴大資料庫的收集範圍,納入企業ESG永續報告書中的資料,並且串接政府端的開放資料,建置成「ESG檢測儀」網站。此項專案的目標是讓企業資料能夠更簡便地被查詢,並且透過詳盡完整的企業檔案夾,掌握企業在永續轉型的努力,促進企業邁向環境永續的「正向競逐」。
The "Thaubing(Transparent) Footprint" project is a working group of the Green Citizens' Action Alliance, an environmental organization in Taiwan. Through advocating for transparent disclosure of environmental data, we unfold and examine corporate pollution emissions and records of environmental violations. We aim to identify shortcomings in government environmental governance, initiating a tripartite dialogue among the public, businesses, and the government. Using data as a foundation, we strengthen environmental governance and compile publicly available environmental data on the "Thaubing(Transparent) Footprint" website, encouraging widespread public participation in environmental monitoring.
In 2021, in response to the global wave of promoting ESG, sustainable transformation, and green finance, and to genuinely assess whether companies are progressing towards sustainable goals, we expanded the scope of our database collection. We incorporated data from corporate ESG sustainability reports and integrated government open data to create the "ESG Detector" website. The objective of this project is to facilitate easier access to corporate data, and through comprehensive company profiles, provide insights into their efforts in sustainable transformation. This initiative aims to foster a "positive competition" among companies, encouraging them to move towards environmental sustainability.
氣候風險已在全球造成衝擊,臺灣雖已宣示淨零轉型,但企業實際的執行成效,仍缺乏廣泛、公開、結構化的資料集,以致於難以進行整體分析,也拉高了促進轉型的成本;另一方面,大眾對企業永續報告書的印象多是隱惡揚善、報喜不報憂;我們認為,永續報告書,是企業對外溝通的重要管道,我們應該要求企業,如實揭露資訊,避免報告書成為企業漂綠的工具。
使用同一套標準,依據不同產業,驗證企業的永續報告書,是我們的目標,但在過程中,會碰到以下問題:
