---|---|---|---|---|
Greenhouse Gas Emissions |
RT-CH-110a.1 | Gross global Scope 1 emissions, percentage covered under emissions-limiting regulations | Metric tons (t) CO2-e, Percentage (%) |
Gross global Scope 1 emissions: 2.491 million tons-CO21 Percentage subject to emissions limits : 83%2 Notes:
|
RT-CH-110a.2 | Discussion of long-term and short-term strategy or plan to manage Scope 1 emissions, emissions reduction targets, and an analysis of performance against those targets | n/a | ||
Air Quality |
RT-CH-120a.1 | Air emissions of the following pollutants:
|
Metric tons (t) |
Note: (4) applies to atmospheric emissions of PRTR Law-specified substances |
Energy Management |
RT-CH-130a.1 |
|
Gigajoules (GJ), Percentage (%) |
Note: Percentage of renewable energy represents the ratio of solar power, wind power, biomass fuel, and electricity procured from renewable energy sources to total Toray Group fuel consumption.
|
Water Management |
RT-CH-140a.1 | (1) Total water withdrawn, (2) total water consumed, percentage of each in regions with High or Extremely High Baseline Water Stress |
Thousand cubic meters (m³), Percentage (%) |
Note: Total water consumed is calculated by subtracting water discharged from water withdrawn. Water stress is surveyed for each Toray Group business site based on the World Resources Institute’s Aqueduct Water Risk Atlas. The amount of water withdrawn and the amount of water consumed by business sites located in regions with High or Extremely High Baseline Water Stress are summed up, respectively, yielding the percentages shown above. |
RT-CH-140a.2 | Number of incidents of non-compliance associated with water quality permits, standards, and regulations | Number | 4 Environmental Risk Management |
|
RT-CH-140a.3 | Description of water management risks and discussion of strategies and practices to mitigate those risks | n/a | ||
Hazardous Waste Management |
RT-CH-150a.1 | Amount of hazardous waste generated, percentage recycled | Metric tons (t), Percentage (%) |
Note: The scope of aggregation for waste generated is Toray Industries, Inc. and its group companies in Japan. Data corresponding to “industrial waste subject to special control,” as defined in Japan’s Waste Disposal and Public Cleansing Act, is recorded as hazardous waste generated. |
