Climate Goals & Targets
Long-term Goals:

Environmental Challenges
- Lack of readily available technology to achieve Net Zero, limited supplier commitments hindering data quality and emission reduction.
Mitigation Strategies
- Annual data collection and reporting of Scope 1-3 emissions, improved data quality through primary supplier data collection, partnering with suppliers with Net Zero ambitions, transitioning leased fleet to electric vehicles powered by 100% renewable electricity, transitioning to sea freight from air freight where possible, using air transportation suppliers committed to sustainable aviation fuel, annual review and update of Carbon Reduction Plan, offsetting residual emissions once reduction goals are achieved.
Supply Chain Management
Responsible Procurement
- Partnering with suppliers that match our Net Zero ambition to facilitate high-quality data provision and year-on-year emission reductions
