Impact and dependencies assessment
The company does not disclose any assessment of its impacts on nature, including biodiversity, in its supply chain. The company does not disclose any assessment of its dependencies on nature within its own operations or of its upstream business relationships.
Key areas and species
The company does not disclose the locations that are in or adjacent to areas important for biodiversity within its own operations. Nor does it disclose the locations of its suppliers that are in or adjacent to areas important for biodiversity. Moreover, it does not disclose species populations existing in or adjacent to the locations of its suppliers, although it does disclose the status according to national and international conservation lists of species identified in its own locations.
Ecosystem conversion and restoration
The company does not have a commitment to ensure zero conversion. The company does not disclose any activities to achieve conversion-free supply chains, nor does it have time-bound targets to achieve conversion-free supply chains. The company has a commitment to minimise ecosystem conversion. While the company discloses that it manages its disturbance activities, no further evidence was found that it discloses qualitative efforts to minimise ecosystem conversion in areas important for biodiversity. The company is committed to restoring ecosystems and discloses details and outcomes of ecosystem restoration projects in areas affected by its own operations or by its suppliers.
Resource exploitation and circularity
No evidence was found regarding the company’s efforts to work towards a circular economy or which organisms it exploits. The company has an opportunity to develop a strategy and publicly report on specific, time-bound targets. The company does not disclose efforts to improve soil health.
Water
The company demonstrates it is reducing water withdrawal in its own operations. While it has developed site-specific water efficiency plans, no further evidence was found that it has a time-bound target to reduce water withdrawal across its own operations or reports progress against the target. The company reports how much water is withdrawn for its own operations in water-stressed areas. The company does not engage with suppliers to reduce water withdrawal. The company reports a decrease in water pollution but does not regularly report on this topic. Nor does it disclose targets to reduce water pollution. The company does not disclose its processes for managing and monitoring discharge water quality. Finally, the company does not disclose a commitment to respect the right to water or its processes for implementing preventive and corrective action plans for identified specific risks to the right to water and sanitation in its own operations.
Solid and air pollution
The company is reducing the production of hazardous waste but is not reducing plastic use and waste in its own operations. The company does not report on the amount of plastic waste generated and proportions directed from or to disposal. The company reports regularly on air quality parameters of emissions of harmful air pollutants. However, it does not report time-bound targets to reduce air pollutants across the most material parts of its value chain.
GHG emissions
The company is reducing its scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions. It has a time-bound target to reduce its scope 1 and 2 emissions and reports progress against the target. However, the target is not aligned with a 1.5-degree trajectory. The company is not reducing its scope 3 emissions. It does not disclose a time-bound target to reduce its scope 3 emissions or report progress against the target. Therefore, it is unclear whether the company’s scope 3 emissions reduction target is aligned with a 1.5-degree trajectory.
Invasive species
The company has not identified any activities that could lead to the introduction of invasive species in its own operations.
