Pirelli wins second consecutive A rating for climate efforts

Milan, Italy – Pirelli & C. SpA has been awarded a top rating on the Climate A list prepared by the CDP for the second year in a row, the Italian tire maker announced 20 Jan.

CDP ratings are based on the effectiveness of a company’s efforts to cut emissions, reduce climate risks and develop ‘the low-carbon economy’.
