We are on track towards achieving our Science-Based Target to reduce Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 46.2% to 2030. We are driving improvements through a combination of energy efficiency projects, onsite renewable energy installations, selective procurement of renewable energy, and shifts in residual emissions factors. We continue to report on our Scope 3 emissions, which are estimates prepared by applying relevant GHG protocol methods.

In 2024,

• we achieved a 7.9% reduction of GHG emissions (scope 1 and scope 2) in our own operations as compared to 2023 and we reached an overall decrease of 31.3% compared our baseline reporting year of 2019.
