Collaborating for action

Achieving Net-Zero and supporting climate ambitions more broadly will require profound changes across our value chain, as well as industry-wide change through close collaboration and partnerships. Some of the steps the company is taking include:

  • Identifying our most significant suppliers based on their Scope 3 materiality and commencing decarbonisation roadmaps.
  • Sharing knowledge, best practices and join forces where a standardised industry-wide approach is required.
  • Gathering more granular information on suppliers’ emissions and risk areas, to increase the accuracy and transparency of our reporting.
  • Equipping our workforce with knowledge about our Net-Zero journey and how they can contribute is critical to its success.
