Through collective, collaborative action across our g

29、 level in early 2020 and are on track to hit this target across the entire leadership team by the end of the year, as part of an expanded suite of diversity and inclusion programs across the business 3.

We regularly review our strategic approach and the issues we focus on to ensure our activities have the most impact. To further explore the sustainability landscape in the co

35、ntext of our own business we have undertaken a materiality assessment, which has identified 12 sector-relevant issues from existing reporting frameworks, mapped against global trends and our own business strategy. These 12 issues fall within specific focus areas which encompass our sustainability ap

36、proach and pledges. We sought feedback from a range of internal and external stakeholders on these issues and have analyzed the findings to identify priority issues. All those who took part in the survey agreed that every issue presented was important, supporting the robust strategy and approach we

37、have in place within the sustainability function and across the wider business. 12/50 How Refinitiv continues to manage and reduce its carbon emissions was flagged as a priority issue, including how we disclose climate risk through transparent reporting. We are increasing transparency in reporting t

38、hrough the Task Force on Climate- related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) disclosures, and stretching our environmental ambition by setting targets that we consider to be science-based. This continues to be a business priority and we commit to working with our colleagues, suppliers, customers and partn

39、ers to keep ourselves to account. Sustainability governance and leadership again raises the importance of responsible and transparent behaviors when managing issues of increased relevance to business growth. In response we have reviewed our sustainability governance approach, integrated climate risk

40、 into our risk portfolio, and increased reporting cadence to our executive leadership team and board. Social impact and innovative solutions was flagged as the most important issue relating to supporting local communities. This aligns with our existing approach where we are seeking opportunities to

41、offer more than traditional volunteering and funding, and leveraging our own data, solutions and technology to activate on societal needs.

42、ER LOOK 16/50 Managing and measuring our environmental performance is an area in which we have accelerated our action and ambition. At the end of 2018 we set short-term targets to be carbon neutral and 100% powered by renewable energy and 100% renewable energy by the end of 2020 and to reduce our in

43、itial annual emissions by an average of 10% a year. Following ongoing collaboration across our business throughout 2019, led by real estate and facilities management, sourcing, technology and travel teams we achieved our targets by January 1, 2020. These targets set us on a path to emissions reducti

44、on and the following programs were instrumental in achieving our goals: Reducing utility consumpion globally: through consolidation projects, reducing unused space and introducing agile working environments. Waste management: completing waste management reviews in our global hub locations; identifyi

45、ng and implementing improved recycling programs where required; providing awareness sessions to employees on effective waste segregation. Sustainable refurbishment: continuing to put sustainability at the core of Refinitiv refurbishment and relocation projects by reusing and recycling equipment, and

46、 introducing LED lighting where possible. Recycling and reducing single-use plastics in our working environments were identified by Refinitiv colleagues as areas of most concern in 2019, so we ran global and local campaigns to target these areas. We provided over 30,000 reusable mugs and bottles to

47、our colleagues in the vast majority of our offices, along with reducing the availability of single-use cups in these locations. We also supported local activities to build on these initial steps, by providing 1,500 utensil kits in our New York Times Square office and committing to the Breaking the P

48、lastic Habit campaign in Canary Wharf, London. In 2019 we submitted our carbon strategy, data and targets to CDP for the first time, achieving a B score. The CDP framework, alongside our materiality report, has been a foundational part in the development of new, stretching environmental targets for

49、the business.
