Own Operational Footprint
Our ambition is to remove emissions from our direct business operations. Our target is to reduce baseline CO2 equivalent emissions by 50% by 2025. We define our direct own operations as Scope 1, Scope 2 (paper, water, waste, business travel and commuting) emissions. It excludes upstream and downstream emissions from our value chain.
So far, we have reduced our carbon emissions by 38% from our 2019 baseline.
