b'BACK TO NAVIGATIONCLIMATE ACTION 2022 AusLSA Member Performance EMISSION TARGETS AusLSA has introduced expanded Climate Action reporting this year. Our measuresYES NO IN DEVfollow our standard approaches for measuring firms progress, including establishing policies, developing action plans, setting targets, and committing to Science Based46%Targets for 2030 reductions and achieving net Zero. The progress of policy development shows that firms are increasing their commitments to climate action. While only 30 per cent of firms had a policy in place at the time of reporting, a further 28 per cent of firms were in the process of developing one.25%In similar proportions, 25 per cent have committed to greenhouse gas emission targets, but a further 29 per cent of firms were in the process of developing theirs. Fifteen per cent of firms had established targets under the Science Based Targets principles, which aims to make reductions sufficient to limit global temperature rise to 1.5 degrees Celsius. A further seven per cent of firms were also developing29%these targets. Net Zero Science-Based targets or probably the most challenging for organisations to plan for and commit to, seven per cent of firms reported having Net Zero targets in place, with a further 12 per cent working on creating these targets Formal action plans with objectives, resourcing and accountability are critical elementsSCI. BASED TARGET - 2030of climate actions. This year only 16 per cent of firms have an action plan in place, but 26 per cent have an action plan in development. This indicates a 160 per cent growthYES NO IN DEVin a single year. Firms were very active in undertaking a range of initiatives to reduce their emissions and raise awareness of the importance of climate action; on average, firms undertook eight initiatives each year. The most popular initiatives, with 85 per cent participation,78%were; end-of-trip facilities which support cycling and pedestrian commuting and teleconferencing technologies, which reduce the need for travel-based emissions. Eighty per cent of firms participated in Earth hour this year and had energy-efficient15%buildings rated above four stars on the Green Star building rating. With so much policy and target work in development this year, it will be exciting to observe how much progress is being reported in next years AusLSA report.7%SCI.
