Bedrijfsspecifieke Passage in 'de brief'

U heeft uw duurzaamheidsbeleid vastgelegd in uw Environmental, Social and Governance report in 2020.

Wij constateren dat uw ambitie is om in 2030 uw Co2 uitstoot (scope 1, 2 en 3) te verminderen met 15% ten opzichte van 2019 en om in 2050 Co2 neutraal te opereren. U commiteert zich tevens aan het Parijs Klimaatakkoord en stelt binnen de 1.5 graden te willen blijven.

Hoewel deze ambities een stap in de goede richting zijn constateren wij dat de ambitie voor 2030 niet voldoende is om binnen de 1.5 te blijven. Tevens constateren wij dat u niet voldoende concrete plannen heeft opgesteld waaruit blijkt dat u uw ambities gaat realiseren, met name voor uw scope 3 emissies. Dat is een grote tekortkoming en maakt uw ambities niet geloofwaardig.

Daarmee draagt uw bedrijf bij aan gevaarlijke klimaatverandering en loopt u het materiële risico om mensenrechtenschendingen te veroorzaken.
