In 2024, there was a slight 3.2% increase in our Scope 3 emissions due to employee commuting. On the other hand, we have reduced emissions from business travel and our upstream leased assets. Understanding the significance of addressing Scope 3 emissions, we launched a pilot programme in 2024, involving 20 key suppliers in a Scope 3 Workshop to promote awareness and collaboration. This initiative marks an essential step toward building a comprehensive Scope 3 emissions inventory and developing targeted reduction strategies across our value chain. WHAT IS OUR OUTLOOK? Looking ahead, we aim to strengthen our environmental policies by developing a comprehensive Climate Policy that expands our focus beyond carbon emissions to encompass pollution control, water stewardship, and broader environmental management. This policy will guide our ongoing efforts to mitigate climate risks, safeguard natural resources, and contribute to a more resilient and sustainable future. Additionally, we have enhanced our reporting frameworks by incorporating recommendations by the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) and transitioning to ISSB S1 and ISSB S2. under the National Sustainability Reporting Framework (NSRF), ensuring transparency, accountability, and alignment with global best practices. Absolute emissions (tC02e) Absolute emissions (tC02e) Intensity (tC02e per employee) Absolute emissions (tC02e) Category 6: Business travel Category 7: Employee commuting Category 8: Upstream Leased Asset Trend Analysis: The increase in employee commuting is due to inclusion of two additional entities, MEEM and EAL office. Our business units and operations have taken proactive steps by establishing Sustainability Committees to drive sustainability initiatives across the organisation. Additionally, we are committed to exploring green transport solutions, expanding their use, and greening our buildings with sustainable LED lighting. In the medium term, we will be producing our Scope 3 emissions roadmap which guide the organisation in tracking emissions across our supply chain. Scope 3 we recorded emissions reduction of 4.72% against an annual target of 3.69% OVERALL PERFORMANCE Our Scope 1 and 2 emissions in addition to selected Scope 3 categories totalled to 19,511.94 tCO2e. In 2024, we recorded an overall emissions reduction of 848.68 tCO2e or 4.72% against an annual target of 3.69% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions. Compared to our revised baseline year, our Scope 1 and 2 emissions decreased by 4.72%.
