c) Carbon Data Management: To ensure transparent and comprehensive carbon footprint reporting, we are taking the following steps: Appointing Dedicated Data Custodians: These individuals are responsible for collecting and providing raw carbon data from their designated sources. Seeking an Automated Carbon Data Management Dashboard: This tool will enhance efficiency and transparency in data collection and reporting. 2. Minimising Waste Generation Bank Islam prioritises achieving SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production, through initiatives that maximise recycling, material reuse, and promote responsible waste practices via waste segregation bins. To this end, we have intensified our efforts to enhance waste management, prioritising the optimisation of recycling and material reuse. This commitment is demonstrated through bank-wide sustainability initiatives, such as the use of waste segregation bins to promote responsible waste practices, alongside targeted initiatives aimed at improving energy efficiency. 3. Piloting "War on Waste" Campaign To further minimise waste and elevate sustainability awareness, we launched a 100-day, bank-wide "War on Waste" campaign. This platform empowers employees to reduce unnecessary costs, eliminate waste, and champion sustainability within the organisation. The campaign also aims to ingrain a deeper understanding of Bank Islam's sustainability parameters and baseline, providing a platform for collective tracking and improvement of our sustainability goals. Additionally, everyone will be equipped with knowledge about key metrics like electricity consumption, water usage, and carbon emissions within their work areas. 4. Promoting Water Conservation Efforts Understanding the importance of responsible water management, we have implemented advanced water conservation technologies. This enables us to work towards reducing our reliance on municipal water sources, demonstrating our commitment to efficient resource utilisation. Objective What We Did Reduce dependency on municipal water supplies We have implemented rainwater harvesting systems across our facilities, capturing and storing rainwater for reuse. This significantly reduced our dependence on municipal water supplies, promoting sustainability and reducing our environmental impact. Implement sustainable water-saving measures We have integrated advanced leak detection sensors throughout our infrastructure. These sensors play a key role in identifying and addressing leaks promptly, preventing unnecessary water loss. This innovative approach ensures efficient water usage and conserves valuable resources. In terms of electricity consumption, our branches achieved an average Ringgit saving of 54% between June and December 2023. This translates to a power saving of 55%, equivalent to 110,798.1 kWh saved and 84 tonnes of CO2 equivalent (tCO2e) avoided. 120 Bank Islam Malaysia Berhad ◆ Integrated Annual Report 2023 Environmental Impact
