French term or phrase: intégrer le cercle encore trop restreint
This is a company manifesto relating to their environmental footprint, reducing waste and encouraging recycling.
After a long document outlining proposals to this end, the author writes ' cette solution nous permet d'intégrer le cercle encore trop restreint des entreprises responsables en ce qui concerne l'environment'

'This solution allows us to join the still small circle of companies who are aware of their env. responsabilities' does not quite work in English.
