全球減碳新標竿：Levi’s攜多品牌承諾實現永續目標

牛仔褲製造商Levi’s承諾到2050年實現淨零排放，並在2030年前減少範疇3排放量42%。

範疇3排放主要涵蓋供應鏈和產品生命周期中的間接排放，這部分往往佔公司總碳足跡的很大比例。

Jeans maker Levi’s has pledged to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050 and reduce scope 3 emissions by 42% by 2030. Scope 3 emissions mainly cover indirect emissions in the supply chain and product life cycle, which often account for a large proportion of a company's total carbon footprint. Levi’s commitment to reducing Scope 3 emissions means that the company will work closely with partners at all stages of the supply chain to reduce carbon emissions at every stage, from production to transportation and distribution. Such a commitment is crucial to combating global warming and sustainable development, and Levi’s hopes to push the entire industry in a lower-carbon direction.

Levi’s對減少範疇3排放的承諾意味著，公司將在供應鏈的各個環節與合作夥伴緊密合作，以減少從生產到運輸、分銷等各個階段的碳排放。

As part of the plan, Levi’s has also committed to relying on 100% renewable electricity in all of its company-operated facilities globally by 2025, an initiative that will effectively reduce direct carbon emissions from its operations. In addition, Levi’s plans to significantly reduce water use in manufacturing processes in high water stress areas, with the goal of reducing freshwater use

這樣的承諾對於應對全球變暖和可持續發展至關重要，Levi’s希望借此推動整個行業朝著更低碳的方向發展。

in these areas by 50% by 2024 compared to the 2018 baseline. Levi’s uses water extensively in many manufacturing processes. Reducing water consumption not only helps alleviate water scarcity issues, but also demonstrates the company’s commitment to responsible resource management. These measures demonstrate Levi’s determination to proactively adapt and respond to environmental challenges.

作為該計劃的一部分，Levi’s還承諾到2025年，將在其全球所有公司運營的設施中依賴100%的可再生電力，這項舉措將有效減少其營運中的直接碳排放。此外，Levi’s計劃在高水資源壓力地區的製造過程中顯著減少用水量，目標是在2024年前將這些地區的淡水使用量相比2018年基線減少50%。Levi’s在許多製造過程中廣泛使用水資源，減少用水量不僅有助於緩解水資源稀缺問題，也展示了該公司對負責任資源管理的承諾。這些措施顯示出Levi’s積極主動適應和應對環境挑戰的決心。

Levi’s said its climate transformation plan is consistent with the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosure (TCFD) framework, a globally recognized guideline designed to help companies incorporate climate-related risks into their financial reports. Levi’s plans are also supported by reporting guidelines from the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) and the We Mean Business Alliance, which help

Levi’s表示，其氣候轉型計劃符合氣候相關財務揭露工作小組（Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosure, TCFD）的框架，該框架是一項全球公認的指導原則，旨在幫助公司將氣候相關風險納入財務報告。Levi’s的計劃也得到碳揭露專案（Carbon Disclosure Project, CDP）和We Mean Business聯盟的報告指南支持，這些機構的指導幫助公司更準確地報告和披露其在氣候變遷方面的進展和挑戰。Levi’s還邀請了來自“信任的顧問”、領先的研究機構、非政府組織（NGO）、投資者以及業內其他品牌的意見，這包括環保非營利組織Ceres和世界資源研究所（World Resources Institute, WRI）的建議，以確保其氣候計劃的透明度和嚴謹性。

companies more accurately report and disclose their progress and challenges on climate change. Levi’s is also inviting input from “trusted advisors,” leading research institutions, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), investors and other brands in the industry, including environmental nonprofit Ceres and the World Resources Institute (WRI), to ensure transparency and rigor in its climate plans.

“我們的氣候轉型計劃體現了Levi’s對於可持續發展的承諾，不僅是達成目標，更是希望在價值鏈中與合作夥伴攜手，推動集體行動來應對氣候變遷的挑戰，”Levi’s首席可持續發展官傑弗裡·霍格（Jeffrey Hogue）在10月16日的更新中表示。“通過這些措施，我們不僅在2050年前邁向淨零排放的長遠目標，也在逐步增強公司對氣候變遷帶來的影響的適應力。”霍格強調，公司不僅僅是通過內部措施，還會積極與整個價值鏈中的供應商、物流商以及其他合作夥伴緊密合作，共同應對氣候挑戰。

“Our climate transformation plan reflects Levi’s commitment to sustainable development, not only to achieve goals, but also to work with partners in the value chain to promote collective action to address the challenges of climate change,” Levi’s Chief Sustainability Officer Jeffrey Hogue said in an update on October 16. "Through these measures, we are not only moving towards the long-term goal of net-zero emissions by 2050, but also gradually increasing the company's adaptability to the impacts of climate change." Hogg emphasized that the company not only adopts internal measures, but also actively works closely with suppliers, logistics providers and other partners throughout the value chain to jointly address climate challenges.

此外，該公司旗下還擁有Dockers和Beyond Yoga等品牌，這些品牌也被納入該計劃的氣候目標範疇。Levi’s表示，未來計劃至少每三年修訂一次其氣候轉型計劃，以“保持對氣候風險和機會的準確關注，並確保符合現行且國際公認的框架。”這樣的定期修訂將幫助公司及時適應新的環境變遷挑戰，並對公司目標進行必要的調整，這也使得其可持續發展承諾能夠隨著技術的進步和行業的變化持續有效。

In addition, the company owns brands such as Dockers and Beyond Yoga, which are also included in the plan's climate goals. Levi’s said it plans to revise its climate transformation plan at least every three years in the future to “maintain an accurate focus on climate risks and opportunities and ensure compliance with current and internationally recognized frameworks.” Such regular revisions will help the company adapt to new environmental change challenges in a timely manner and make necessary adjustments to the company’s goals, which also allows its sustainability commitments to continue to be effective as technology advances and industry changes.

Levi’s的首個氣候轉型計劃的發布恰逢該公司在五月份宣布其2050年淨零排放目標獲得了科學基礎減碳目標倡議（Science Based Targets initiative, SBTi）的批准。這項批准代表著Levi’s的減碳目標符合國際公認的科學基礎標準，並顯示出公司對科學驅動的減碳方法的信任和承諾。同時，公司也更新了其範疇3排放減量基準年，將基準年從2016年更新至2022年，以便更準確反映最新的排放數據，並為未來的減排計劃提供更準確的基礎。

The release of Levi’s first climate transition plan coincides with the company’s announcement in May that its 2050 net-zero emissions target received approval from the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). This approval represents Levi’s’ carbon reduction goals as meeting internationally recognized science-based standards and demonstrates the company’s trust and commitment to science-driven approaches to carbon reduction. At the same time, the company has also updated its Scope 3 emissions reduction base year from 2016 to 2022 to more accurately reflect the latest emissions data and provide a more accurate basis for future emissions reduction plans.
