For many years, we have been working
to reduce climate impacts in different
phases of the value chain. For
example, choosing organic cotton
means 46% less climate impact as
compared to conventional cotton.
Similarly, by involving our suppliers
in cleaner production programmes
including the Better Mills Initiative,
PaCT and SAVE we contribute to
improved energy efficiency, which
again has led to GHG emissions
reductions. We are currently applying
what we learned from our various
value chain initiatives to develop a
reporting method. The method will
include data from our use of more
sustainable materials, our Garment
Collecting initiative as well as both
first-tier and second-tier suppliers
to measure and report our emissions
reductions in our value chain.
