Reducing our CO2 emissions

Our priority is a circular economy and giving new life to used materials, ensuring they do not end up in landfills or incinerators.

Investing in waste-to-product solutions presents both economic and social challenges. However, it is crucial to take action against climate change. Carbon reduction, or reducing CO2 emissions, is our top priority, fully aligned with the goals of the Paris Agreement.

Science-Based targets

By the end of FY23, we committed to setting science-based targets, which are yet to be validated by the Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi).

Our goal is to reduce absolute Scope 1 & 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 50% and Scope 3 emissions by 25% by 2030, using FY22 as our reference.

Our path to decarbonisation

We are focusing on reducing the carbon intensity of our collection and operations with targeted measures:

  • More sustainable waste collection: increasing the share of EURO-6 and electric trucks in our fleet.
  • Energy consumption:in our operations, we aim to use 100% renewable electricity on-site.
  • Sustainable transport: increasing the share of hybrid and/or electric company cars.
  • Innovation: researching carbon capture technologies to reduce process emissions.
