Science-based Targets to Decarbonize

In line with guidance from experts, we’re working to reduce our scope 1 and scope 2 emissions to a level that helps keep global warming below 1.5C. Once we have measured our baseline, we will create a roadmap to reduce our scope 1 and 2 emissions by 50% in the near term.  

Additionally, we are taking steps to address our scope 3 emissions. We recognize that emissions from transporting used goods is an important source of carbon emissions in our business, and we are actively collaborating with others to find lower-carbon solutions.

GOALS

We’re working to measure our baseline carbon emissions in our direct operations, our purchased electricity and our upstream and downstream business.

We are serious about climate change and set our carbon reduction targets based on science, not hype.

We are prioritizing emission reductions and renewable energy in our direct operations where we have most control.

We’re partnering with experts to measure our carbon emissions and prioritize action.

Decent work in our Operations and Supply Chain

We work hard to ensure that our direct operations fully respect human rights, and we recognize that there are risks in some of the markets where our suppliers are located. When our team members are present in a supplier’s facilities, suppliers sign a code of conduct and agree to protect human rights.

However, we recognize that our influence is limited when we act alone. Therefore, we take collective action with other players in our industry to improve human rights and working conditions in operations where we have little direct control.

GOALS

We have always believed in respect for our people and protecting human rights.  Our new policies put those beliefs into clear commitments and help us clearly communicate these standards to suppliers and partners.

We have grown an international business based on the belief that ethical business practices make good business sense.  Our new Code of Conduct makes these expectations clear to our Team Members and Leaders.

We take a zero tolerance approach to child labour and modern slavery in our operations and supply chains and empower our team to report any concerns.

We assess the human rights risks of our suppliersand work with our suppliers to improve conditions.

We’re working collectively to find lower-carbon solutions for transporting used goods
