カジノ シークレット 出 金 Formulates Grand Design to Achieve Carbon Neutrality by 2050
-Setting a New Goal of Reducing Greenhouse Gas Emissions by 50% by FY2030 and Laying Out Major Initiatives Toward Carbon Neutrality-
Dec. 10, 2021
カジノ シークレット 出 金 has formulated a grand design to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, setting out a direction for its initiatives and goals for its activities. The カジノ シークレット 出 金 Group*1 commits itself to reducing its greenhouse gas emissions by 50% by FY2030, compared to the level of emissions in FY2013, and to achieving carbon neutrality by 2050. Having raised its emissions reduction target by FY2030 to 50%, on December 10, 2021, カジノ シークレット 出 金 once again received certification from the Science Based Targets (SBT) *2 initiative for this new target as meeting カジノ シークレット 出 金tandard of “well-below 2°C.”*3 To achieve this newly certified target and carbon neutrality, カジノ シークレット 出 金 will accelerate reductions in greenhouse gas emissions by approaching the issue from the perspectives of both obligations and contributions, implementing initiatives that are built on scientific, logical and quantitative foundations and leveraging the expertise and technological capabilities the Company has developed as a diversified chemical company.
1. Direction for the カジノ シークレット 出 金 Group’s Initiatives to Achieve Carbon Neutrality
As part of its mission as a diversified chemical company, the カジノ シークレット 出 金 Group will implement initiatives to achieve carbon neutrality in a way that is characteristic of the カジノ シークレット 出 金 Group and from the perspectives of both obligations and contributions:
1. The obligation the Group has to bring its own greenhouse gas emissions close to zero
2. The contributions the Group makes through its products and technologies to reducing global greenhouse gas emissions
2. Major Initiatives カジノ シークレット 出 金chieve Carbon Neutrality
(1) The カジノ シークレット 出 金 Group’s obligation to bring its own greenhouse gas emissions closeto zero
Targets in terms of the カジノ シークレット 出 金 Group’s obligation:
・A 50% reduction in the カジノ シークレット 出 金 Group’s greenhouse gas emissions (Scopes 1 and 2)※4 by FY2030 compared to its levels in FY2013
・Carbon neutrality (net zero for the カジノ シークレット 出 金 Group’s greenhouse gas emissions) by 2050
In 2018, カジノ シークレット 出 金 became the first diversified chemical company in the world tohave its emissions reduction targets certified by the SBT initiative, and now it has once againreceived that certification, significantly increasing its emissions reduction target for FY2030 tomeet the “well-below 2°C” standard. The Company will implement initiatives based on scientific, logical and quantitative perspectives to achieve this newly certified target, a reduction in its Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 50% by FY2030. As achieving this target calls for making full use of the best available technology, in addition to taking thoroughgoing energy-saving measures, カジノ シークレット 出 金 has now begun implementing a variety of initiatives, including building liquid natural gas (LNG) power generation facilities at its Ehime Works and deploying highly-efficient gas turbine energy generation equipment at its Chiba Works. The カジノ シークレット 出 金 Group aims to achieve its goal of halving emissions by FY2030by making full use of the Group’s capabilities, with a primary focus on its own direct greenhouse gas emissions. In addition, the Group will pursue a further increase in its emissions reduction target, with a view to having its target certified by the SBT initiative as meeting the standard of a “1.5°C pathway.”
The カジノ シークレット 出 金 Group considers that it would be extremely difficult to meet its targetfor 2050 only by using existing technologies, and that innovation will be essential. Goingforward, the Group will lead and advance a variety of initiatives to develop innovativetechnologies for carbon capture and utilization (CCU) *5 and carbon negative solutions, as well as to deploy those technologies in society, in order カジノ シークレット 出 金chieve carbon neutrality by 2050.
(2) The カジノ シークレット 出 金 Group’s contributions through its products and technologies to reducing global greenhouse gas emissions
The カジノ シークレット 出 金 Group, in collaboration with a broad range of stakeholders, will strive to deploy products and technologies that contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions insociety as quickly as possible.
