Account for your organization’s Scope 3 emissions, disclosing and explaining any exclusions. | This category includes customer's emissions relating to the processing of intermediate products sold by a reporting company, such as the conversion of aluminum ingots into aluminum injection molded products.We reviewed this category in 2018 and concluded that PMI sold only final products to end-users, and no intermediate products which could be further processed, transformed or included into other products, therefore this category has been excluded. | 1 | 529,764 |
Provide details of your climate-related supplier engagement strategy. | We introduced a Supplier Environmental Footprint Scorecard in 2014 to measure the footprint of our Top 100 suppliers that collectively represent approximately 2/3 of our spending. The scorecard enables us to profile top-supplier efforts to measure, set goals and report on water and energy consumption; greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions; and waste-to-landfill reductions. It also seeks data about our top suppliers' suppliers (Clorox second-tier suppliers) to expand our view of and ability to impact our upstream supply chain. About 96% percent of our top suppliers responded to our scorecard request. Close to half of the suppliers that responded measure the amount of waste they send to landfill, 68 percent measure their GHG emissions, 70 percent measure water and 78 percent measure energy consumption. In addition, 38 percent setting public ghg reduction goals. Additionally, 44 percent request sustainability information from their suppliers. We have re-submitted this scorecard to our suppliers in 2018, with the goal of working with these business partners to drive sustainability improvements across our supply chain in the years ahead. | 1 | 76,881 |

Provide details of opportunities identified with the potential to have a substantive financial or strategic impact on your business. | Market shifts do affect our customers, which in turn can affect our bottom line through an increase in write-offs. For example, if the shift to a low carbon economy increases the market for electric vehicles, any automotive industry manufacturers who have not effectively transitioned might see a decrease in revenue, resulting in an inability to meet financial commitments, which would, in turn, affect U.S. Bank's business. When we see a market shift that would affect a large number of customers, we would then include the risk in our portfolio review and risk assessment. With the shift to a low carbon economy, U.S. Bank is beginning to look at products to assist and/ or encourage our customers with this shift. Examples of products being explored are renewable energy lending and expanded impact investment offerings. Because of this, we see market shifts as both a risk and an opportunity to expand our business. In addition, as climate risk events increase, we should expect more frequent market shock events. The bank currently maintains a strong capital structure, non-high risk trading strategies, and a risk management framework that includes stress scenarios to estimate potential loss from a severe market shock. | 0 | 517,402 |

O‘ahu’s residents were essential in shaping this plan with more than 2,000 perspectives shared at three key stages, including 672 participants at 11 early community education and engagement meetings, 760 respondents to an island wide representative survey and 614 contributors at a virtual open house. In addition, participants in focus groups, a technical working group, and engagements with other City departments helped refine technical analysis and city-based actions. At the first stage, 11 community meetings were held island-wide in 2018, co-hosted by Honolulu City Council members, Hawai‘i Pacific University, University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa, and the Chamber of Commerce of Hawai‘i. Participants played an interactive “climate game” that served to foster conversation on priorities for climate action. In follow up, a Climate Action Working Group made up of sector experts and stakeholders was formed, building on a steering committee of the Resilience Strategy. The Working Group served as a sounding board for technical analysis and proposed climate actions that were incorporated into an island-wide survey and virtual open house. The island-wide representative survey was conducted in April 2020 to better understand how the City can enable its residents to reduce O‘ahu’s GHGs. Four in five survey respondents were concerned or very concerned about climate change. Survey responses were also used throughout the CAP to provide baseline information on resident activities and preferences towards actions. | 0 | 243,436 |

Which of the following risk types are considered in your organization's climate-related risk assessments? | Between 2011 and 2017, CP participated in a Canadian rail sector locomotive GHG emissions intensity reduction target program. During these six years, CP successfully reduced the GHG emissions intensity of the operational locomotive fleet, exceeding the 7.2 percent reduction target. The target described here builds upon this achievement and represents a renewed Canadian rail sector locomotive GHG emissions intensity reduction initiative covering the years 2018 through 2022. This program is related specifically to CP's locomotive emissions, which account for 94.8 percent of all CP's Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. As such, this target is limited to CP's Scope 1 emissions only.In 2019, CP and other members of the RAC entered into an MOU with Transport Canada and Environment Canada to proactively manage the largest source of rail sector and locomotive emissions. Under this agreement, the rail industry committed to setting intensity-based GHG emissions reduction targets for locomotive operations. First executed in 2005, this represents the fourth MOU of addressing locomotive emissions in Canada. The latest agreement recognizes and builds upon the success of the previous memorandum. The GHG emissions target outlined in the new MOU requires Class 1 railways to reduce locomotive GHG emissions intensity by 6 percent from 2017 levels by the end of 2022.CP is committed to the objectives of the MOU and continues to demonstrate leadership in operating one of the most fuel-efficient freight railways in North America. CP's locomotive fuel efficiency in 2019 was 0.955 U.S. gallons of locomotive fuel consumed/1,000 GTMs, outperforming the North American Class 1 freight railway average fuel efficiency by 13.8 percent.

Please explain the level of inclusion of the planning process. | Quezon City’s Qualitative Climate Risk Assessment 2020 was developed into an online platform 'Climate Story Map' that provides interactive visualizations of climate information, hazard maps and key climate risks, communicating the impacts of climate change towards the city stakeholders. Under Quezon City's Qualitative Climate Risk Assessment 2020, the three priority climate hazards identified include (1) cyclones and flooding, (2) drought, and (3) heat.For each of the climate trends for these three climate hazards, the Qualitative Climate Risk Assessment 2020 shows how these trends could affect different sectors in Quezon City. These sectors are based on the National Climate Change Action Plan (NCCAP) and are categorized into (1) natural impacts (ecological and environmental stability, water sufficiency), (2) social impacts (human security, knowledge and capacity development) and (3) economic impacts (sustainable energy, infrastructure and transport, food security, climate‐friendly industries and services).Furthermore, Quezon City's Qualitative Climate Risk Assessment 2020 has developed interactive maps that integrate overlay hazard maps with key vulnerable populations and urban systems. This evidence base will enable an analysis on the impacts of climate hazards on said vulnerable populations and urban systems. The integrated maps include the following:1. Urban heat island effect map overlaid with population density and informal settlement maps: The base map indicates urban heat islands based on land surface temperature for 2018, as measured by the Landsat program. The map then overlays relative population density in Quezon City based on 2015 census data, and informal settlements from QC - Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office based on 2013 data.2. Urban heat island effect map overlaid with elderly population map: When it comes to urban heat, elderly people are known to be more vulnerable than the general population. When people are exposed to high temperatures during the summer months, they can suffer from potentially deadly illnesses such as heat stroke. Elderly with pre-existing health conditions are particularly vulnerable as exposure to even short periods of heat can aggravate their health conditions. This map allows decision-makers to see the barangays that have a large absolute number of citizens aged 65 or older.3. Flood hazard map overlaid with maps of hospitals, evacuation centers and informal settlements: Extreme rainfall often causes floods when rivers and canals exceed their capacity. Poor communities are especially exposed to these floods, often situated in flood zones and with fragile houses. The map shows roads, hospitals, evacuation centers and informal settlements within the 100 year flood zones. These areas are particularly at risk for flooding. Roads include bridges that can be swept away and tunnels that are highly vulnerable.4. Rainfall-induced landslide vulnerability overlaid with map of informal settlements: Steep terrain, heavy rainfall, earthquake activity and vulnerable soils make the Philippines susceptible to landslides. In Quezon City, extreme rainfall events, combined with elevated terrain (for example in the northeastern part of the city), can produce landsliding with major societal and economic impacts. In 2012, a landslide triggered by heavy rains killed nine people in Quezon City. | 0 | 1,069 |
