Extreme weather events offer a preview of the significant risks posed by climate change. As a responsible company, Brambles is taking measures to decarbonise our supply chain to reduce these risks, while pursuing adaptation strategies that protect our service centre networks and enhance resilience in our supply chains. Brambles' fourth climate-related disclosure outlines the company's approach to governance, risk management, strategy, metrics, and targets in relation to decarbonisation and physical climate-related risks and opportunities presented by the climate transition. Importantly, we demonstrate how Brambles is leveraging opportunities from our low-carbon circular business model and Climate Positive targets. In addition to our TCFD reporting, Brambles has joined 320 companies and financial institutions to commit to early adoption of the Task Force on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD). This reflects the critical importance of nature – alongside climate - for our global organisation and its growing role in shaping strategic decisions. Brambles will commence incorporating TNFD-aligned disclosures from FY24. Read the full report here: https://lnkd.in/gn2QyGp9
