Measures on Climate Change
Endorsement of the TCFD Recommendations
We have declared to endorse the Recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) .We are a participant in the TCFD Consortium of companies, financial institutions and other organizations that endorse the recommendations. We are carrying out measures to respond to the need for action on climate change and to achieve zero carbon, which we have identified as important materialities.
With increasing the intensity and frequency of natural disasters such as severe rainfalls and major typhoons, climate change impacts the continuity of Group business. Moreover, carbon taxes and other restrictions on carbon emissions may increase amid efforts to alleviate climate change.We expect demand for eco-friendly products and IT solutions to grow.
For the reasons given above, we support the achievement of carbon neutrality for society as a whole. We hope to contribute to carbon neutrality by providing solutions and services that reduce the environmental impact of society overall.
Governance
We are committed to advancing sustainable management group-wide. For this reason, we have built a framework to discuss and examine concrete measures to deal with environmental issues, including climate change.
The sustainability committee, which consists of the President and the Representative Director, analyzes the risks and opportunities that climate change presents. The committee shares policies to respond to these issues and formulates action plans to monitor progress.
The sustainability committee reports and debriefs the board of directors about its policies who then supervises policies and action plans.
The ID Group also constructs an environmental management system (EMS) based on ISO 14001. The results of activities of the EMS are reported to the Board of Directors through the Management Meetings.
Strategy
Factors that may impact the group include the following.
Risk Management
To respond to the wide ranging risks associated with carrying out business operations, we stipulated a Basic Risk Management Policy. Additionally, we have established a Group Risk Management Committee which serves as an advisory body to the Board of Directors. Chaired by the President and Representative Director of the Company, this committee includes members of the Board of Directors, Operating Executive Officers, the Presidents of Group companies, and related officers and employees. The Group Risk Management Committee identifies, evaluates and manages potential risks such as climate-change-related risks, and clearly communicates them to the Board of Directors. With respect to climate change, the Analysis Subcommittee of the Group Risk Management Committee liaises with the Sustainability Committee to analyze the risks, formulate action plans surrounding environmental issues, and monitor progress. In addition, the Board of Directors discusses and supervises response policies and action plans that involve environmental issues.
Indicators and Targets
In evaluating its climate-related risks, we have concluded it is more effective to provide IT solutions and services to deal with climate change directly rather than to alleviate the effects that come with climate change. To reduce our greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs), we are introducing efforts to reduce electricity consumption at our offices, including the head office. In the first half of FY2022, our head office will entirely switch our energy supply to renewable energy sources.
【GHG Emissions】
We have set targets to reduce GHGs, including CO2.
Compared to our GHG emissions in 2020, we aim to reduce our emissions by 20.0% by 2025 and by 30.0% by 2030.
Protection of biodiversity
Manachan
Our company mascot is a manatee, an endangered marine animal. By featuring our mascot in illustrations, LINE stamps, etc., we hope to help raise awareness for the marine environment.
In recent years, the problem of microplastics has grown increasingly serious. Microplastics form when PET bottles, straws, and other plastic products enter oceans where they become broken down into small fragments. They are extremely harmful as they are often consumed by marine animals. In order to reduce trash that could potentially become microplastics and improve the marine environment, we encourage our employees to use reusable water bottles.
