We care about Sustainbility Engagement in Retail

A carbon footprint is a measure of the greenhouse gas emissions associated with an individual, organization, or activity. These emissions are primarily from the burning of fossil fuels, such as coal, oil, and gas, but can also come from other sources, such as waste and deforestation.

Scope 3 emissions are the result of activities from assets not owned or controlled by the reporting organization, but that the organization indirectly impacts in its value chain.

Sustainability in retail is an important issue for Australia, as the country's retail industry is a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, waste production, and resource consumption. In order to address these challenges, it is essential for retailers to adopt sustainable practices and for consumers to support these efforts by choosing to purchase products from sustainable retailers.

Fast fashion refers to the production of clothing and other fashion items at a rapid pace, often in response to the latest trends and styles. This type of fashion is characterized by low prices, frequent new collections, and a high rate of turnover of products.

Carbon credits, also known as carbon offsets, are permits that allow the owner to emit a certain amount of carbon dioxide or other greenhouse gases.

Australian Retailers can take a critical action to lay the foundation to become more sustainable organization and reduce their carbon footprint.

Survey from L.E.K. Consulting among 3,000 consumers around the world suggests that Australian consumers are increasingly demanding more from companies.

A retailer can strive to be 'net zero' by taking steps to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions and offset any remaining emissions through the purchase of carbon credits or other methods.
