Measuring KN’s environmental impact! Yes, but how?

Environmental aspects

Carbon footprint & the GFCC

Targets for 2013

Page 4: CONTRACT LOGISTICS & THE ENVIRONMENT

What are KN’s main focuses when setting yearly targets?

Environmental aspects

Electricity and Gas:Usage for:

Lighting, heating, battery-charging, air conditioning,

ventilation, computers, other office facilities (e.g printers,

photocopiers, etc..)

Transport:Fleet of vehicles with many

environmental impacts:Depletion of scarce

resources, Co2 emissions & other emissions leading to

smog and acid rain.

Water:Anything harmful that enters

the surface water drains may pollute streams, rivers

and kill wildlife.

Noise:Noise can have a significant effect on local

communities.

Page 5: CONTRACT LOGISTICS & THE ENVIRONMENT

Disposal Only where all other alternatives have been exhausted

Energy recoveryUse of waste as an alternate source of fuel

Recycling- Source segregation of materials - Separation of waste types required by law (Animal by products, Liquids,

Hazardous Waste)- Mechanical or Biological separation of waste

ReuseReturn and refill schemes: Printer Cartridges, bottle/can deposit schemes, etc

Prevention• Damage reduction• Stock control and rotation• Culture Awareness

Minimization

WASTE MANAGEMENT HIERARCHYHow does it work?

Page 6: CONTRACT LOGISTICS & THE ENVIRONMENT

Pollution ManagementPollution Risk assessment

The consequences of environmental breach are not just financial. A firm’s reputation is some of the highest risks and could be essential for the survival of a business.

Therefore it is crucial to understand the environmental

aspects on our sites.

What is Pollution? It is the release of chemical, physical, biological or

radioactive contaminants to the natural environment that causes instability, disorder, harm or discomfort to our ecosystem.

Page 7: CONTRACT LOGISTICS & THE ENVIRONMENT
Page 8: CONTRACT LOGISTICS & THE ENVIRONMENT

The center piece of KN‘s Environmental Management System

Establish an appropriate environmental policy,

Identify the environmental aspects in order to determine the environmental impacts of significance,

Identify applicable legal and other requirements to which the organization subscribes.

Identify appropriate environmental objectives and targets,

Establish a structure and a programme(s) to implement the policy and achieve objectives and meet targets,

Perform audits and take preventive and corrective actions to ensure both that the policy is complied with and that the environmental management system remains appropriate.

Kuehne + Nagel’s carbon management programme designed to :

Calculate customers’ carbon footprint, Identify carbon reduction potentials in their transport and logistics activities Offset their remaining emissions.

Carbon Intelligence

Page 12: CONTRACT LOGISTICS & THE ENVIRONMENT

Definition & content

What ? An inventory of all of the

emission sources

From where? An organisation, product,

process or person.

Its role? To measure, monitor and

reduce Co2 emissions.

Site emissions include:

Office heating, cooling systems & Refrigeration

Lighting, computers and electronic appliances.

Additionally, in some countries Kuehne + Nagel operates fleets of trucks that necessarily need to be accounted for the company’s overall footprint.

Glossary:

Fossil fuels gas, oil, coal Direct & Indirect emissions gas, electricity...

We aim to be the forwarder leader in

environmental measures

Global Transport Carbon Calculator

(GTCC)

Global Facility Carbon Calculator

(GFCC)

Global Strategic Carbon Calculator

(GSCC)

Our Carbon Intelligence toolkit is based on two main components :

• The Global Facility Carbon Calculator (GFCC): A site-level report enabling to prioritise actions to reduce energy, fuel and water consumption• The Global Transport Carbon Calculator

(GTCC):One of the most powerful tools in the industry

for the measurement and reporting of CO2 emissions caused by sea, air and road

transport activities. The GTCC allows Kuehne + Nagel to provide its clients with reports on their carbon footprint by

transportation mode.

Carbon Intelligence

Page 14: CONTRACT LOGISTICS & THE ENVIRONMENT

Global facility carbon calculator

Highlights priorities for action, by identifying

and measuring the larger sources of emissions on site

Enables comparison between similar sites through the use of the emex software.

Provides energy usage needed for Carbon Reduction Commitment [will be a

tax] and fuel usage for Logistics Carbon

Reduction Scheme

Tables and graphs give “green” notice-boards

Baseline set up and target achievements

Page 15: CONTRACT LOGISTICS & THE ENVIRONMENT

Scope 1: All direct emissions (company owned fleet)Scope 2: Indirect emissions (consumption of purchased electricity) Scope 3: Other indirect emissions (waste generated in operations)

Environment champions Who are they?

Kuehne + Nagel employees who volunteer to become Site Environment Champions.

They act as a 2-way channel for advice and information, conduct trials, be an

advocate for change, prepare and publish the GFCC monthly performance report.

What do they do?

Raise awareness on environmental issues.Provide guidance to staff and influence site

activities to reduce CO2 emissions and costs arising from fuel, energy and water

usage and the disposal of waste.

Page 17: CONTRACT LOGISTICS & THE ENVIRONMENT
Page 18: CONTRACT LOGISTICS & THE ENVIRONMENT

Glossary – Environmental Law Duty of care: A person is responsible for

avoiding acts or omissions that could be likely to cause harm to the environment.

“Polluter pays” principle : Those who pollute should bear the costs of damaging the environment.

Producer responsibility: Making sure businesses that manufacture and sell certain products are responsible for those products once they become waste.

Page 19: CONTRACT LOGISTICS & THE ENVIRONMENT

Water Resources Act 1991

Regime set up to conserve, manage and control pollution of water resources and

abstraction. “A little guidance” :

Only put rain water down the surface water drain!

Water Industry Act 1991

Set up private water authorities.“A little guidance”:

Don’t put anything into a fowl drain but sewage without the permission

of the water authorities!

Page 20: CONTRACT LOGISTICS & THE ENVIRONMENT

Classifies waste management according

to their desirability. The 3Rs (Reduce, Use & Recycle) are meant to

be a hierarchy, in order of importance.

Page 21: CONTRACT LOGISTICS & THE ENVIRONMENT

CO2 reporting

Scheme designed to reduce carbon emissions How does it reduce them? Charges public and private sector organizations that consume large amounts of electricity and gas.

Page 22: CONTRACT LOGISTICS & THE ENVIRONMENT

Pollution prevention Guidelines

Their objective: Prevent pollution entering

watercourses and groundwater by means of

guidance, rather than legislation.

Hazardous Waste regulations

Sets out a regime for the control and tracking of

the movement of hazardous waste.

HOW CAN YOU BE MORE SUSTAINABLE AT HOME?

On average every person in the UK throws away their own body weight in rubbish every

three months.

Over a third of all UK energy use, and 38% of its carbon emissions, are accounted for by transport - mostly road traffic.

Housing in the UK

accounts for 30% of

total fuel use and

energy-related CO2

emissions.

Page 30: CONTRACT LOGISTICS & THE ENVIRONMENT

Why change?

For our future as individuals, families and communities

Global warming will be a direct threat to the business, in terms of reductions in trade due to natural disasters

and increased poverty

Our existing customers demand environmental improvement and our potential customers regard it as a

key criterion when selecting a partner

To ensure KN’s environmental targets are reached, and that the company remains as competitive as possible in

a greener environment
