Our approach to environmental sustainability
We are taking practical steps to reduce our impact through our entire business. Reducing carbon emissions is a business imperative.
Recent global weather events have clearly demonstrated the significant impact that the climate is having on our communities, and the sustainability of businesses.
Carbon neutral in Australia
Jumbo’s Australian operations have a net zero carbon footprint, which we have achieved through carbon offsets with Climate Active Australia. We are actively working towards reducing our emissions, with a focus on our Australian operations, with plans to expand to our international subsidiaries in the coming years.
Ongoing emissions reductions
Jumbo is aiming to reduce our emissions whereby: scope 1 and 2 emissions are eliminated, incremental reductions are targeted across scope 3, and remaining carbon emissions are offset through the purchase of qualified carbon credits.
We are aiming to reduce emissions by:
- Counting carbon emissions and verifying this carbon inventory through external assurance
- Transitioning to renewable source energy
- Achieving a targeted reduction in our direct consumption of resources.
Beyond carbon neutral
We take our commitment to sustainability seriously.
