Efforts Related to Scope 3

We have disclosed greenhouse gas emissions due to corporate activities through the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP)^*1 for many years and we are also working to calculate our emissions of greenhouse gases including those of the supply chain.

Currently, the Scope 3 Accounting and Reporting Standard for calculating emissions from the whole supply chain is being studied for standardization in fall 2011 under the GHG Protocol, which is an international guideline for calculating and reporting greenhouse gas emissions. Also, in Japan, the Ministry of the Environment held an investigative commission on methods for calculating greenhouse gas emissions in the supply chain starting in July 2010. As a member of the subcommittee on product systems of that commission, we collected and assessed the data, and analyzed the precision and completeness of the calculated values. Based on the results of this case study, we are working towards methods for calculating the Scope 3 emissions internally.

*1 A project in which institutional investors and others cooperate to request disclosure of information concerning climate change strategy and greenhouse gas emissions from the world's leading corporations.
