Neuss, Germany, 14 December, 2023 (APA/OTS) - Yanfeng's short-term targets for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions for its global interiors business have now been confirmed by the Science Based Targets initiative. With this, the company commits to make a scientifically based contribution to the reduction of greenhouse gases by 2030 in line with the Paris Climate Agreement. |

"For the reduction of emissions, we have deliberately adopted
scientific-based targets, which are verified by the internationally
recognized Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi)," explained
Büchter, Vice President Global Sustainability at Yanfeng. "The
automotive industry remains a major driver of CO2 emissions. As part
of an industry which has a considerable impact on global warming, we
need to act now in order to meet the targets of the Paris Agreement
established in 2015. By setting science-based targets as a binding
framework, we have made a concrete, public, and verifiable promise
to the environment, society, and our customers."
By 2030, Yanfeng commits to reduce absolute greenhouse gas
emissions from its own production, its fleet of vehicles (scope 1)
and from purchased energy (scope 2) by 50% in comparison with the
baseline year 2019. With this, both segments will make a
contribution to the limitation of global warming to 1.5°C and are
therefore in line with the targets of the Paris Agreement.
Yanfeng has multiple examples of success. To reduce its emissions,
the company utilizes power from renewable sources, including
photovoltaic systems, for all of its plants in Europe and South
Africa.
The company has also committed to a 27.5% reduction of scope 3
emissions by 2030 from upstream and downstream supply chains,
including purchased raw materials and services, business travel,
employee commuting, production and the disposal of products, as well
as logistics. These targets are applicable for all company locations
in Europe, South Africa, the United States, Canada, Mexico and Asia.
"Because we have determined the carbon footprint of our company, we
know where we need to take action to reduce our emissions. Together
with our commitment to scientifically validated targets we are
creating the framework for our environmental sustainability
strategy. However, we can only achieve these targets in
collaboration with all of our partners in our value chain,"
emphasized Gunnar Büchter.
The Science Based Targets initiative was founded in 2015 by the CDP
(formerly the Carbon Disclosure Project), the United Nations Global
Compact (UNGC), World Resources Institute (WRI) and the World Wide
Fund for Nature (WWF). It provides companies with a clearly defined
framework for reducing emissions according to the latest climate
science and the targets of the Paris Climate Protection Agreement,
in order to make a contribution to limiting global warming.
