- 1 Emissions of CO2 equivalents for six gases (CO2, CH4, N2O, HFCs, PFCs, SF6) are calculated according to conversion factors for each gas. There are no NF3 emissions. For Scope-1 group companies outside Japan, only CO2 emissions are calculated.
- 2 Until fiscal 2022, this was calculated by multiplying the GHG emissions and revenue of individual subsidiaries worldwide by the applicable Toray Industries' equity share. In fiscal 2023 however, the calculation method changed, and the degree of financial control Toray Industries has over the individual subsidiary (not the equity share) is now used, in accordance with the GHG Protocol, the international standard.
For information on such matters as the breakdown and types of greenhouse gas emissions, waste volume (recycled materials, incinerated materials, and other), breakdown of water usage and total water consumption, and amount of coal ash disposed of (direct landfill disposal), please refer to the Environmental Impact Overview.
