The scope of this work considers different asset typologies in different markets, with the aim to mitigate operational carbon (Scope 1 & 2), embodied carbon (Scope 3), and whole life carbon (Scope 3) across our value chain according to our carbon mitigation hierarchy.KPI A.1.6 (Comply and Explain): During construction, we implemented erosion and sediment control as well as responsible waste management to minimise the environmental impact. All of the assets in our portfolio were developed in accordance with the applicable governing codes and construction standards. Hazardous waste generated are handled by tenants and property managers according to local laws and regulations. For non-hazardous waste, they were disposed through various methods such as landfills, recycling and waste to energy. There was no material non-compliance noted on the treatment of hazardous and non-hazardous waste. In addition, as waste generation for ESR is immaterial, no reduction targets were set on this aspect. We focus on setting targets for significant aspects like energy and emissions.
