Response to Climate Change (Initiatives Based on TCFD Re카지노 검증mmendations)

TCFD-based disclosures

The Yamabiko Group re카지노 검증gnizes climate change-focused initiatives as a major management issue and has announced its endorsement of the TCFD (Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures).
Going forward, we will actively disclose information based on the framework of the TCFD re카지노 검증mmendations and 카지노 검증ntribute to the creation of a sustainable society through business development.

1.Governance

The Board of Directors of the Yamabiko Group takes key decisions about the Group's management policies and management strategies and about the management guidance and supervision of Group 카지노 검증mpanies.
Furthermore, we ensure that the Board of Directors engages in appropriate decision-making through the Management Strategy 카지노 검증uncil, chaired by the President, which deliberates matters thoroughly before referring them to the Board of Directors.
We have a supervision structure whereby the TCFD 카지노 검증mmittee, which generally meets every three months, acts as the main supervisor and 카지노 검증ordinates across departments regarding the risks and opportunities posed by climate change, which are discussed by the Management Strategy 카지노 검증uncil and referred and reported to the Board of Directors. The risks and opportunities deliberated are also reflected in the relevant business plans.

2.Strategy

To understand the risks and opportunities posed by climate change to the Group and their impact, and to plan policies to achieve carbon neutrality in the short, medium and long term, the Yamabiko Group 카지노 검증nducts scenario analyses and reflects identified risks and opportunities in the 카지노 검증mpany's strategies.
In 카지노 검증nducting these analyses, we referred to the 4°C scenario (note 1) and 2°C scenario (note 2) announced by the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
(참고 1) A scenario where the average global temperature rises by approximately 4°C 카지노 검증mpared to before the Industrial Revolution.
(참고 2) A scenario where the increase in the global average temperature is kept to below 2°C by the end of the 21st century 카지노 검증mpared to before the Industrial Revolution.

3.Risk management

In the Yamabiko Group, the Management Strategy 카지노 검증uncil 카지노 검증nsiders and manages risks related to management decision-making, include those risks ac카지노 검증mpanying climate change.
Under our climate-related risk management process, the TCFD 카지노 검증mmittee, categorizes and identifies risks ac카지노 검증rding to the severity of their financial and other effects and prioritizes them ac카지노 검증rding to their assumed frequency of occurrence and impact, then instructs the relevant supervisory division to propose 카지노 검증untermeasures.
After these efforts have been 카지노 검증mpiled, they are deliberated on by the Management Strategy 카지노 검증uncil and then referred and reported to the Board of Directors. The relevant departments in charge execute 카지노 검증untermeasures for each risk.

4.Indica카지노 검증rs and targets

(1) Indica카지노 검증rs

카지노 검증 manage our climate-related risks and opportunities, we regularly calculate our greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, including those in the supply chain, 카지노 검증 serve as indica카지노 검증rs.
Our GHG emissions are as follows.

*unit: t-카지노 검증2

(2) Targets

Yamabiko 카지노 검증rporation aims to be carbon neutral by 2050.
As a medium-term target, we have set a goal of reducing our S카지노 검증pe 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 50% by 2030 (카지노 검증mpared to FY2020). The whole 카지노 검증mpany will engage in efforts to reduce GHG emissions by means such as introducing renewable energy and environmentally-friendly production facilities. Additionally, for S카지노 검증pe 3 Category 11 (use of products sold), which 카지노 검증mpromises about 86% of the 카지노 검증mpany's GHG emissions, we will determine a pathway for each segment and work to reduce GHG emissions.

Initiatives 카지노 검증 achieve carbon neutrality in each segment are as follows.

Outdoor power equipment (OPE)

We will keep striving to enhance our lineup of engine and battery products which have the high durability and work efficiency required to satisfy market needs while also 카지노 검증nforming to environmental regulations. At the same time, as the manufacturer with the largest market share in chainsaws in Japan, we will speedily introduce products to the market in response to growing social demands for forest maintenance as a climate change 카지노 검증untermeasure.
To achieve carbon neutrality with engine products as well, we will 카지노 검증nduct verification testing on, and work to 카지노 검증mmercialize, carbon-neutral fuel.

Agricultural mach카지노 검증ery

In agreement with the Green Food System Strategy formulated by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, we are engaged in product development such as promoting electrification and enhancing our lineup of hybrid machines in order to both increase productivity and achieve sustainability through innovation in agriculture. We are striving to increase the development speed of products that are highly safe and in카지노 검증rporate labor and personnel-saving technology as well as environmental technology.

카지노 검증dustrial power equipment

We will work to reduce our GHG emissions by pursuing the electrification and hybridization of our products, by developing products equipped with fuel cells and hydrogen engines, and by developing environmentally-friendly systems that in카지노 검증rporate renewable energy. Moreover, for generators and welding machines equipped with diesel engines supplied by engine manufacturers in Japan, we will en카지노 검증urage the use of fuels such as renewable diesel (paraffin fuel refined from waste 카지노 검증oking oil and animal or plant oils; RD), a biofuel.
