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 2022
Jumbo is targeting net zero carbon emissions for our Australian operations by 2030 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. At this stage we are focused on our Australian operations, with plans to expand to our international subsidiaries in the coming years.
We are aiming to reduce emissions by 20% 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
