We recognize that measuring the three scopes defined by the GHG Protocol and turning the results into specific efforts to reduce CO2 emissions are important in establishing a carbon neutral society. Scopes 1 and 2 are GHG emissions from our business activities, the former being direct emissions from our use of fossil fuels and the latter being indirect emissions from the use of purchased energy resulting from generation of electricity by power plants and other facilities.Scope 3 emissions are indirect emissions associated with each product from the purchase of raw materials to end use by customers and disposal.
The amout of Scope 3 has been obtained third-party verification by SGS Japan Co., Ltd.

Going forward, we will continue to monitor GHG emissions within the entire supply chain and accordingly promote CO2 emissions reduction activities.
