Our established Roadmap and Action Plan, part of our RISE sustainability strategy, address challenges of the impacts of climate change, biodiversity loss and ecosystem degradation through buildings with sustainability features, cleaner and renewable energy, waste reduction, water management and responsible sourcing.
Energy & Climate Resilience
Reducing our GHG footprint and addressing climate-related risks and opportunities drive our climate strategy. Our actions are overseen by our Chairman & CEO to ensure we remain on track to achieve our commitment to operate carbon-neutral resorts globally by 2030. Our Roadmap and Action Plan include time-bound targets supported by specific actions towards 2030, including activities to reduce and decarbonize our energy consumption and address GHG emissions along our value chain.
OUR TARGETS
• Achieving carbon-neutral resorts by 2030
• Minimizing the impact of our business on ecology and biodiversity
• Improving the operational performance of all our resorts year-on-year
• 5% tCO2e/m2 intensity reduction in Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 2030, with ambitions for 22% reduction at the property level
• 3% kWh/m2 intensity reduction in fuel and electricity consumption by 2030, with ambitions to achieve between 4% to 8% reduction at the Group level
TCFD
We have voluntarily aligned our climate strategy and disclosures with the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) framework to assess potential climate-related risks and opportunities.
Material Use & Waste
Our Zero Waste Working Group, responsible for setting our resource conservation and waste reduction agenda, holds monthly meetings to assess progress, identify areas for improvement and plan new initiatives. This involves considering additional actions, resources, training and partnerships with suppliers, business partners and local governments.
We have ingrained a mindset of resource conservation and waste prevention among our colleagues and stakeholders, and continuously collaborate with them to explore opportunities for circularity and environmentally responsible alternatives, while always ensuring quality, safety and guest experience are not compromised.
Our efforts are particularly focused on influential categories such as building and renovation materials, single-use plastic, food and food waste as well as diverting recyclables and water management.
OUR TARGETS
• Achieving zero waste across our resorts by 2030
• 19% m3 /m2 intensity reduction in water consumption by 2030
• Increasing our capacity for greywater recycling across all our properties
• 5% tonnes/m2 intensity reduction in non-hazardous waste generation by 2030, with ambitions for 24% reduction, against our baseline year of 2019
• Diverting 5% of useful materials from disposal with ambitions for 24%
