Clean Cargo Emissions Factors 2018 Report

Preview

BSR’s Clean Cargo Working Group^TM (Clean Cargo) is the leading buyer-supplier forum for sustainability in the cargo shipping industry. Annually, Clean Cargo discloses trade lane carbon dioxide emissions factors for ocean container transport, this year collected from 22 ocean container carriers on more than 3,200 ships that collectively represent approximately 85 percent of ocean container capacity worldwide. Our annual reporting indicates that average CO2 emissions per container per kilometer for global ocean transportation routes fell 1 percent from 2016 to 2017. Since Clean Cargo began publicly reporting data from the industry in 2009, emissions per container per kilometer have dropped 37.1 percent on average.

Several years ago, Clean Cargo published its peer-reviewed, standardized methodology and reporting system that has been adopted globally by the industry, with carriers submitting operational data from the entire fleet to BSR on an annual basis. The results produce environmental performance scorecards for each carrier, which are used to meet corporate supply chain sustainability goals by 95 percent of shipping customers who participate in the group.

Today, Clean Cargo tools represent the industry standard for measuring and reporting ocean carriers’ environmental performance globally. Clean Cargo’s 50 members benefit from these tools while sharing knowledge and best practices for cutting emissions, and they publicly demonstrate their commitment to global efforts to reduce emissions.

Steps to Create Your Company’s Renewable Energy Strategy

Preview

At the Global Climate Action Summit this fall, stakeholders from around the globe will meet in San Francisco to discuss how we can take climate ambition to the next level. Business can play a significant leadership role in accelerating the transition to a lower-carbon economy, and as we have seen through initiatives like the Renewable Energy Buyers Alliance (REBA), renewable energy can be a key component of climate action efforts.

Corporate renewable energy procurement should be guided by a defined strategy based on available options, key priorities, and ambition. To create your strategy, you must identify your company’s motivations for procuring renewable energy, adopt supporting goals and commitments, and identify available internal human and financial resources to aid execution.

These are the steps we would suggest to help you get started.

1. Assess Your Options

The first step is to assess the landscape of renewable energy sourcing options available on the market to determine what is feasible. This will ultimately determine the renewable energy options available to you.

Current and future policies will impact renewable energy costs, incentives, and availability. The Climate Policy Tracker can be a useful tool in assessing how regulations will impact your renewable energy choices in various jurisdictions.

After narrowing procurement options based on geography, your company must consider specific site constraints. Here are some questions to consider:

Is your real estate portfolio suitable for onsite renewable energy generation? Leased assets often pose a challenge for onsite generation, requiring companies to liaise with their landlords; however, renewable energy availability also poses a challenge. For example, a company that leases retail space in an urban locality with poor solar energy potential may not have the option of leveraging onsite renewable energy, despite a supportive landlord.
If your real estate portfolio is suitable for onsite generation, what is the energy capacity of potential projects/installations? Companies with owned or leased assets that support onsite renewable energy generation should consider the energy capacity of any potential projects/installations and use this to calibrate their local procurement implementation. Asset type and energy capacity should be significant considerations when negotiating contract terms with potential project developers.
What is your time horizon? Long-term contracts should not be considered for sites that are likely to be eliminated from the real estate portfolio before the termination of the power generation contract.

2. Create Your Strategy

Once you’ve determined what your renewable energy options are, the next step is to determine your ambition level and define your strategy for renewable energy. To ensure adoption and integration within your company, this should complement both your business and sustainability strategies. A company with existing energy intensity, greenhouse gas reduction, and business growth goals should design a renewable energy strategy that complements existing objectives and initiatives to facilitate execution. Available financial resources should factor prominently into this and will ultimately dictate the realistic level of ambition your company can set.

Your strategy should reflect your company’s motivation for renewable energy procurement. For example, a company seeking to grow the renewable energy market and illustrate private-sector demand for clean power may prioritize options like new onsite or regional solar installations and choose to only purchase renewable energy attributes (e.g. RECs) that are bundled with renewable power. One example of this is Intuit’s Purely Green Program, which the company launched in part to show market demand for wind energy in Texas for its business partners, employees, and customers. Adobe’s renewable energy strategy prioritizes onsite installations and PPAs, supported by energy efficiency and policy advocacy, to meet its 100 percent renewable energy goal. Anheuser-Busch InBev’s strategy aims to source roughly 75 percent of its electricity from direct PPAs and roughly 25 percent from onsite installations.

3. Identify Opportunities to Collaborate

While renewable energy procurement variables can be complex to navigate, you do not need to work in isolation. Collaborating with other companies can help you achieve your strategic renewable energy objectives and minimize the barriers to entry for procurement.

For example, you could consider partnering with a group of companies with regional operations who are willing to enter into a shared procurement contract. This approach, known as consortium aggregation, is both feasible for companies with energy demands that are typically individually too small for project developers and companies with significant energy demands that can appropriately distribute the project load. For example, AkzoNobel, DSM, Google, and Philips leveraged this approach in the Netherlands—each company assumed an equal stake in a wind PPA there. The shared contract can also be anchored by a company that assumes the majority share of the energy, leaving smaller companies to assume small shares of the overall project load.

Initiatives like the Future of Internet Power and REBA can also provide the resources and tools for companies to execute against their renewable energy strategies together. Contact us if you’re interested in learning more about how you can help increase your climate ambition with renewable energy in advance of the Global Climate Action Summit.

How Do We Solve the Plastic Waste Puzzle?

Preview

In May 2018, public and private sector representatives with a stake in plastic gathered in Hong Kong to discuss collaborative solutions to reduce plastic waste in Asia Pacific, including plastic design, technology, financing, infrastructure, and consumer behavior. The dialogue—hosted by The Coca-Cola Company and Swire Beverages and moderated by BSR—resulted in six recommendations for business action to address one of the most salient challenges facing the world today: plastic waste.

Over the last few decades, plastic has made life easier for many of us. It is durable and relatively inexpensive, and in many cases, plastic devices like IV bags and syringes have saved lives. However, the plastic production rate has skyrocketed—half of the plastic ever made has been produced in the past 15 years, and globally, only 9 percent of all plastic has been recycled. Approximately 150 million tons of plastic is currently floating in our oceans, and it is accumulating at a staggering rate—9 million tons per year.

Thus far, efforts to reduce waste have been flawed or insufficient. There are several obstacles to recycling plastics, including inadequate sorting processes, lack of recycling infrastructure, and limited financing. Given these challenges, as well as the range of actors involved—from manufacturers and food and beverage companies to waste collectors, consumers, and investors—the waste problem looks like a jigsaw puzzle. However, through combined efforts by all the stakeholders involved, it is one we can—and must—solve.

Focusing on the marine litter problem is treating the symptom of plastic waste, not the cause. For the time being, one of the most important steps to addressing plastic waste is to prevent plastic from becoming waste in the first place by ensuring it is recycled. To increase recycling rates, a key mindset shift is required: understanding that plastic is a commodity.

Commodities exist within markets, and right now the plastics recycling market is functioning well below its potential. This is especially the case in the Asia-Pacific region. Lacking supranational waste management regulation like the EU, APAC countries produce more than 60 percent of all the plastic that enters the oceans. In addition to the lack of regulation, many markets have insufficient recycling capacities, a weak supply of recyclable plastics due to inconsistent or suboptimal design of plastic products, poor recycling practices, and low demand for recyclable plastics resulting from the high cost of recycling versus the often lower cost of virgin (unused) plastic.

For many stakeholders, recycling plastic just isn’t worth it. It’s time we change that mindset and improve the system.

While business is just one piece of a puzzle that involves civil society, academia, and government regulation, businesses both small and large have an immediate opportunity to drive action. There are six feasible and realistic actions that businesses across the plastics value chain, and particularly in Asia Pacific, can take to help prevent plastic from becoming waste:

Generate baseline data on plastic use and recycling and recovery rates.
Innovate with alternative or zero packaging, new types of distribution, and consumer incentive schemes.
Consider setting voluntary standards on plastic design, which can increase the supply and commodity value of recyclable plastic material.
Establish cross-/inter-industry and public-private partnerships.
Inspire governments, investors, and SMEs to invest in waste reduction solutions through commitments on plastic use.
Create corporate green loans, bonds, and other financing mechanisms to stimulate the recycling industry.

What can this look like in practice? The Hongkong and Shanghai Hotels, the owner and operator of The Peninsula Hotels, announced a ban on plastic straws in its operations around the world by November 1, 2018. It’s the organization’s first step toward a broader commitment to transition away from single-use plastics by 2020. Additionally, a number of companies, including The Coca-Cola Company, The Dow Chemical Company, and PepsiCo have backed a US$150 million fund for solutions to the global ocean plastics problem, with a focus on recycling infrastructure investment in Southeast Asia, as part of a wider initiative called Circulate Capital.

While plastic waste should be considered a commodity market challenge, this does not mean that non-business actors don’t also have a role to play.

Governments can set regulations on plastic composition and design to improve recyclability and support the plastics recycling industry through subsidies, tax cuts, and the provision of long-term, low-cost land for infrastructure.
Civil society can support public awareness campaigns to educate consumers on the importance of plastic recycling; it also has an important role to play in advocating for regulatory change.
Academia can produce localized research to inform national plastic policies and support government decision-making.
Multilateral development banks and agencies can earmark funding for waste management infrastructure, as they have done for renewable energy in the past, particularly in low- and middle-income countries.

Keeping plastic out of landfill, the oceans, and the riverways is undoubtedly a complex task, with many entrance points, perspectives, and approaches. But now, with the global, political momentum on plastic waste, is the time for all actors to take action.

How to Implement the TCFD Recommendations to Enhance Your Company’s Resilience

Preview

Climate change is one of the defining challenges of our era. The complex impacts it unleashes will produce significant new risks and opportunities for business. The Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) has called on all public companies to report on climate risks and how they address them in mainstream financial filings.

Since climate risk is systemic and applies across all sectors, the TCFD recommends that companies with annual revenues over US$1 billion report climate risks in non-financial reports in preparation for the day when these systemic risks become material. Engaging with the TCFD recommendations today serves two purposes: (1) reporting to external stakeholders and (2) creating resilient business strategies through scenario analysis.

On the first front, the TCFD recommendations bring a great benefit to sustainability practitioners by potentially unifying the fragmented landscape of climate reporting, with alignment with CDP, GRI, and SASB underway. Over 290 companies and organizations now publicly support the recommendations; 18 companies have expressly committed to implement them as fully as practicable over the next three years.

But it is the second purpose—the development of resilient business strategy through scenario analysis—that gives the most added value for companies engaging with the TCFD.

"The TCFD recommendations do an excellent job of helping an organization evaluate and communicate the risks associated with a changing climate,” said Bruno Sarda, VP of Sustainability at NRG Energy. “Beyond risk mitigation, the use of scenario analysis can help an organization identify opportunities to bolster its strategic resilience and relevance, ensuring that it can thrive not only today, but well into the future.”

Scenario analysis has been used for decades by business and government to improve decision-making under conditions of uncertainty. Rather than basing decisions on single-point forecasts, under scenario planning, companies consider a set of plausible alternative futures to shape more adaptive and resilient strategies.

While we can increasingly predict the aggregate physical impacts of climate change, the secondary and tertiary impacts are inherently challenging to model. For example, it is highly plausible that drought and extreme weather events will cause large-scale human migration with destabilizing sociopolitical impacts—but this is not something that can be predicted with accuracy. Given how consequential these cascading impacts will be, business should use scenario analysis to start considering them now.

Here are our suggestions for how companies can implement the TCFD recommendations to both engage with stakeholders and improve their strategies.

1. Approach scenario analysis primarily as an opportunity to improve strategic resilience

The primary objectives of climate scenario analysis should be to grapple with the uncertainty of climate impacts, challenge a company’s own potential blind spots about the future, and modify business strategies to make them more robust and resilient. We believe firms should disclose the scenarios they are using, key assumptions contained in those scenarios, and information about plausible risks and opportunities for the business. At the same time, disclosure should not prevent an honest and challenging internal appraisal of business strategy.

As the EBRD and the Global Centre of Excellence on Climate Adaptation state, “the ultimate objective in disclosing the use of scenarios is to build investor confidence that a company is meaningfully engaged on the topic of climate change, that it is looking at a broad range of outcomes and is responsive and proactive, rather than defensive and reactive.”

2. Consider a broad range of climate risks and opportunities

We urge companies to take an expansive view of the potential risks and opportunities they may face. While much of the initial conversation around the TCFD recommendations has emphasized transition risk faced by companies in high-emitting sectors should emissions be reduced along a 2°C scenario, equal consideration must be given to the physical risks of climate change, which will be highly disruptive even if warming is held to this level.

Many of the most profound challenges associated with climate change lie in the cascading social, economic, and political changes that will result from physical impacts and are inherently hard to model or quantify. For example, climate-driven human migration, political conflict, economic dislocation, and changing disease patterns will have major implications for society and business. Scenario analysis offers an important opportunity to think about those risks and opportunities that are not easily built into current models.

3. Use scenarios tailored to the business and leverage data from diverse sources

Finally, although comparability in financial disclosures is important, scenario analysis is most effective when tailored to the specific circumstances of an individual company. An energy company may be most concerned about the uncertainty of inbound climate regulation, whereas a consumer products company may be most focused on the uncertainty of physical climate impacts on its agricultural inputs.

Each source of information, including the IEA’s New Policies Scenario and Sustainable Development Scenario, has its unique strengths and limitations. Were all companies to use the same scenarios, based on the same assumptions, they could inadvertently create the kind of economywide risk the TCFD recommendations seek to prevent. Using a diverse set of scenarios reduces the possibility that everyone will be wrong in the same way.

While we agree companies should include at least one scenario that correlates with a 2°C world and another with a higher-temperature world, they should choose scenarios that play out the critical uncertainties that are most relevant to their businesses. It is important that these be plausible and challenging in grappling with the uncertainty of systemic climate risk and do not provide a false sense of security by ignoring the potential for disruption.

The ultimate purpose of the TCFD recommendations is to better prepare the private sector to understand and prepare for the uncertain impacts of climate change. Businesses should approach implementation not merely as a disclosure exercise, but as an important opportunity to enhance their strategic resilience.

How Luxury Can Lead the Future of Sustainable Business

Preview

When luxury leader Chanel published its full-year earnings alongside its first sustainability report at the end of June, the company made a bold move to leave behind the discretion that has characterized it for decades and instead embrace greater transparency. This change signals disruption in the industry, and there is much more to come. While disruption can create challenges, it also offers great opportunity for businesses to become more resilient and ensure strong future growth.

Companies across industries are facing major challenges that, left unaddressed, will have an impact on the resilience of existing business models. These challenges—climate change and biodiversity loss, new technologies and automation, and rising economic inequality—have specific implications for the luxury sector. Climate change and biodiversity loss are affecting the supply of precious raw materials, as well as the resilience of the sector’s infrastructure; new technologies and automation are redefining the manufacturing process, retail experience, and nature of work; and rising economic inequality means luxury brands will need to re-affirm their value, particularly in emerging markets.

Given the luxury sector's role as influencers and trendsetters and its reliance on well-functioning ecosystems, what is the role of luxury to enable and help drive environmental and social progress?

BSR’s Responsible Luxury Initiative (ReLI) is today launching a new report that offers a roadmap toward a resilient luxury sector and highlights three opportunities for luxury companies to invest in future success. The report, Disrupting Luxury: Creating Resilient Businesses in Times of Rapid Change, was developed in coordination and dialogue with ReLI members, who include Cartier, Chanel, Harvey Nichols Group plc, The Hong Kong and Shanghai Hotels Limited, IWC Schaffhausen, Kering, LVMH Moët Hennessy – Louis Vuitton S.A., Michael Kors Holdings Limited, mytheresa.com, OTB, PVH Corp., Ralph Lauren, Richemont International S.A., Swarovski, and Tiffany & Co.

The three opportunities for luxury brands that we have identified in the report are to engage in the circular economy, contribute a positive impact on society, and strongly articulate value to all stakeholders.

Engage in the Circular Economy

Luxury companies can engage in the circular economy, a system that endeavors to protect resources by using less, wasting less, and recycling more, in the following ways:

Adopt regenerative sourcing practices and invest in the restoration of important ecosystems to ensure the availability of precious raw materials derived from nature, such as wool, leather, exotic wood, cashmere, and rare essential oils.
Expand product life cycles by sourcing recycled and upcycled materials for products and by designing new business models that enhance the value of luxury products through giving them many lifetimes.
Build on existing collaborative relationships with key suppliers to identify, catalyze, and support innovation in materials and processes.

Contribute a Positive Impact on Society

Luxury companies can use both their core business strategies and philanthropic agendas to contribute a positive impact. They can undertake the following:

Further support social and environmental progress by assessing how products and services affect society and the planet and using complementary business and philanthropic strategies to address key issues.
Use the power of their brands to promote cultural change toward gender equality and thereby contribute to women’s empowerment; focus on empowering women in luxury supply chains.
Help ensure that people working in their value chains receive a fair wage and provide training for workers to give them the skills they will need for future jobs.

Strongly Articulate Value to All Stakeholders

Luxury companies can prepare for transparency and better engage investors and consumers on environmental and social progress in several ways:

Set a new standard for transparency by providing more details about how their business practices affect the environment and local communities.
Capture the attention of shareholders who are interested in sustainability and looking to invest in companies that create long-term value.
Engage consumers more deeply on a new value proposition for luxury that fully integrates sustainability.

These opportunities do not encompass everything that luxury companies must do to be more resilient and sustainable. Like all businesses, they should look to global frameworks, like the Paris Agreement and the UN Sustainable Development Goals, for guidance on fundamental practices.

However, these recommendations offer a luxury-specific perspective on resilience that builds on the sector's specificities and strengths, such as close relationships with suppliers, the ability to experiment with more flexible manufacturing capabilities than mass-produced goods, and a traditionally long-term view of business focused on preserving heritage and brand equity.

Implementing these opportunities will allow luxury companies to become a model for other sectors, demonstrating how social and environmental sustainability can fuel future growth, drive innovation, and strengthen brand equity.

Join Us to Empower 1.6 Million Women Workers through HERproject by 2022

Preview

The products and services that keep our societies advancing depend on interconnected economies and global supply chains. Often, if you follow these chains to their very end, you will find women in factories or on farms: Approximately 200 million women work in global supply chains. From Bangladesh and China to Kenya and Ethiopia, women are at the heart of the production of many of the clothes we wear and much of the food we consume.

Yet these women face specific systemic discrimination and inequality that make their lives harder—and that weakens the supply chain. This inequality exists both inside and outside the workplace. For example, a man with the same experience and educational background can expect to make 41 percent more than his female counterparts in the garment industry in Bangladesh. Meanwhile, women in MENA and South Asian countries do 80-90 percent of the total unpaid care work.

BSR's HERproject is based on the belief that women can be powerful agents of change to address these inequalities. When low-income working women are empowered to make and act on choices they value, they can change their workplaces, communities, and societies for the better.

Through discussions with our global brands and partners, we have developed a new vision and model for empowering women in global supply chains. The aim of our new HERproject strategy is ambitious: With our partners, we will double our impact and improve the well-being, confidence, and economic potential of 1.6 million women workers by 2022.

The aim of our new HERproject strategy is ambitious: With our partners, we will double our impact and improve the well-being, confidence, and economic potential of 1.6 million women workers by 2022.

Over the last 10 years, we have brought together global brands, their suppliers, and local NGOs to deliver workplace-based interventions on health, financial inclusion, and gender equality. Having worked with over 60 brands in 14 countries to empower over 800,000 women, HERproject has become the largest workplace program devoted to unlocking the potential of women workers in global supply chains.

We are proud to have stood with inspirational—and powerful—women around the globe as they drive major change in their own lives as well as in the lives of their colleagues, families, and communities.

But we don’t believe in standing still. The supply chains we work in are constantly evolving; the lives and conditions of women are not static, and neither is HERproject.

To implement our strategy, we are asking brands to make a major commitment to women’s empowerment. Through HERproject, we would like to work with our partners and help them to:

Integrate women’s empowerment into their sourcing practices;
Support and recognize suppliers to make progress on women’s empowerment;
Work toward a greater level of integration and buy-in at the supplier level; and
Collaborate with peers and key stakeholders to set the agenda for improved outcomes for women in global supply chains.

We would also like committed brands to work with us to enhance the visibility of women workers in global supply chains through their collective reach and influence. We commit to help brands speak up, louder and more frequently, for the rights and welfare of these women in global policy debates.

It’s time for all of us to up our game and aim higher. For genuine change for women in supply chains, we need to commit and collaborate. Our new strategy outlines a pathway for us to achieve our vision together: empowered women, dignified work, better business.

We look forward to deepening our engagement with our existing partners and to welcoming new partners to these efforts. To learn more about these possibilities and to discuss your involvement with HERproject, please contact us.

Global Climate Action Summit Update—Will We See You There?

Preview

With the Global Climate Action Summit coming up this September 12-14 in San Francisco, California, businesses, cities, states, investors, and citizens all have the opportunity to showcase extraordinary climate action commitments that will give world leaders the confidence to continue their support of the Paris Agreement and prevent the worst effects of climate change.

Earlier this month, BSR was pleased to issue Summit invitations on behalf of the Summit Co-Chairs to those of our members who have already demonstrated robust climate commitments through the We Mean Business Take Action Platform. We are encouraging companies to join us in supporting the Summit by making a new commitment, participating directly, or attending a side event. There are many ways businesses can engage.

The main Summit program is focused around five headline challenges:

Healthy Energy Systems;
Inclusive Economic Growth;
Sustainable Communities;
Land and Ocean Stewardship; and
Transformative Climate Investments.

BSR is working closely to develop compelling content and feature bold commitments from business around Challenge 2 on Inclusive Economic Growth—specifically showcasing how business leadership on climate can generate good jobs, broad-based economic opportunity, and inclusive, resilient growth. This issue includes the following sub-challenges:

Science-Based Targets Challenge: Encouraged by Summit Co-Chair Anand Mahindra at Davos in January and through the more recent launch of the Oslo Climate Leadership Declaration, businesses around the world are being challenged to set science-based emissions reduction targets (SBTs) ahead of the Summit, thereby aligning with the Paris Agreement and the level of decarbonization required to keep global temperature increase below 2 degrees C. Companies that are ready to commit to an SBT can reach out directly to CDP to do so.
Resilience Challenge: Resilience is defined as “the capacity to recover quickly from difficulties.” In the context of climate change, resilience is the ability of a system or community to rebound following a shock, such as a natural disaster. Companies are encouraged to make large-scale supply chain climate resilience commitments that will enable their suppliers to implement resilience strategies—protecting workers, communities, and the natural environment from climate change impacts. For business, building climate-resilient supply chains will enable impact at scale and deliver substantial benefits.
Just Transition Challenge: Businesses, governments, and labor organizations can share success stories on and make commitments to both a) manage impacts on workers and communities transitioning away from high-carbon sectors and b) promote broad-based economic opportunity through the creation of good jobs in newly emerging sectors. Specifically, companies that procure renewable energy can pledge to integrate just transition and human rights principles into their procurement standards for renewable energy purchases.

In addition to securing commitments related to the above-mentioned Summit challenges, BSR will co-host an event on Tuesday, September 11 focused on various climate resilience efforts.

This side event will explore a number of approaches to help the public and private sectors establish more resilient communities, ecosystems, and supply chains, which can enable people, businesses, and institutions to thrive in a world of increasing climate risks. It will be open to Summit registrants and non-registrants alike, with advance registration required. Please save the date, and check back on the BSR events and Summit affiliate events pages for more details.

For more information about the Summit, visit the Frequently Asked Questions page. If you have any questions about how to work with BSR to make sure your climate commitments are included in the business contribution to climate action, please contact us.

We hope you join us in San Francisco this September, as our collective efforts must lead to a turning point by 2020 in order to prevent the worst effects of climate change.
