Group-Wide Climate Footprinting An important tool for describing and monitoring consumption and emissions across the Group is climate footprinting. Since fiscal year 2019, a full carbon footprint has been prepared annually for all divisions and countries in accordance with the Greenhouse Gas Protocol and aggregated at Group level.6 In this way, we can develop and evaluate sensible measures to avoid and reduce emissions both group-wide and for each division or country.
