Energy at a power plant is not owned or controlled by your company, therefore these are indirect emissions Indirect (Scope 3) emissions: related to your company s activities but come from sources owned or controlled by another company Source: GHG Protocol Corporate Standard Page 18

CDP s scoring approach: scoring in levels Leadership Disclosure This is where we re at Awareness What does climate change mean to our company? Management How do we manage our climate change risks and impacts? How can we solve the climate change problem? Page 19

Scores and thresholds 2018 Each letter score will correspond to a level There will be 2 bands per level This way the score is communicated in a consistent, intuitive way and illustrates the continuous development a company goes through Page 20

Water insecurity - the case for action UN predicts a 40% global shortfall in water supply by 2030; Excessive loads of nitrogen and phosphate, from agriculture, industrial production and mining, are degrading the quality of the water we have left; and NASA reports groundwater is being depleted to the point where regional water availability is threatened. The World Bank reports water availability in cities will reduce by as much as two thirds by 2050 due to climate change and competition from energy production and agriculture. Page 62
