4 hrs confidence:   l'étanchéité carbone de leur modèle d'entreprise
Explanation:
"Carbon proofing" entre guillemets est bâti sur le modèle de"water proofing" (l'étanchéité). Il s'agit donc de l'étanchéité carbone de leur modèle d'entreprise, en référence aux émissionx non maîtrisées qui, dans les modèles d'entreprise considérés, seraient maîtrisées. En anglais ce "carbon proofing" fait évidemment référence au "carbone leakage" (fuites de carbone) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_leakage
du protocole de Kyoto.
Donc : are identifying climate risks in their supply chains and ‘carbon proofing’ their business models.
"identifient les risques climatiques dans leur filière d'approvisionnement et assurent l'étanchéité carbone de leur modèle d'entreprise."

5 hrs confidence: intégrer le coût du carbone
Explanation:
"MONTREAL — A new study found that Canadian energy companies are factoring higher carbon-related costs in their investment, planning, and technology decisions.
The study, prepared by the Ottawa-based think-tank Sustainable Prosperity, found the companies are using a self-imposed, internal carbon price as they plan for the future, suggesting they’re anticipating a day when carbon tax or cap-and-trade systems are more widespread.
Without a clear sense of the country’s energy strategy, companies are creating their own carbon price to make long-term strategic planning and investment decisions, said Alex Wood, a senior director at Sustainable Prosperity.
“At some future point, there will be a price on carbon,” he said.
“What they are doing is essentially anticipating that and they’re factoring that into their decisions and so are addressing that risk.”
Carbon pricing, the generic term for putting a price on carbon through a carbon tax or a cap-and-trade system, aims to encourage reductions in carbon emissions and spur innovation in low-emissions technology.
The use of a so-called shadow carbon price can help companies decide whether or not to go ahead with a given project, decide which technologies to choose and practices to implement, according to the study.
It also helps companies remain competitive internationally where carbon pricing schemes are already in place.
Sustainable Prosperity, based at the University of Ottawa, surveyed 10 companies for the study, including energy giants such as BP, Shell, Suncor, and Enbridge. All the companies surveyed used some form of shadow carbon pricing.
“They are essentially making decisions about their capital investments, the big plants and big investments they are making as companies, and essentially carbon proofing them,” Wood said."

Il ne s'agit nullement de réduire son impact carbone, mais de veiller à ce que le coût du carbone qui viendra inexorablement augmenter les coûts de production (taxe CO2 par exemple) ne mette pas en péril la viabilité de l'entreprise.

3 hrs confidence: peer agreement (net): -1 renforcer les modèles de consommation durable
Explanation:
Il y a 600 usines d'électricité au charbon aux USA qui rejettent dans l'air 30 % trop de carbone.
La consommation d'énergie finale dans le monde en 2009 est de près de 8,4 milliards de tonnes d’équivalent pétrole (1). Elle a augmenté de plus de 40% entre 1990 et 2008.
Selon le discours, pour augmenter la résilience aux changements climatiques et la lutte contre les inégalités, les entreprises et les individus doivent revoir en baisse leurs consommations et modes de consommation et les écosystèmes doivent être préservés. On a éventuellement recours aux calculs d'empreinte écologique.
"L'empreinte carbone" (carbon footprints), l'impact carbone sont inclus, mais "carbon proofing models" a un sens plus large au sens du développement durable.

Qu'on parle de consommation éco-responsable, de consommation durable, d'éco-consommation en entreprise ou d'allègement de la charge écologique des entreprises, c'est le même concept sous diverses appellations.
