Disney and Environmental Goals to achieve the SDGs in 2030

Environmental Goals for 2030

The Walt Disney Company is dedicated toward conserving natural resources but also
establish a stable impacts on the climate as we run and build our organization.

Our dedication to environmental protection started since our firm was formed more than
ninety years ago. "Environmental protection was not just a responsibility of some of," Walt stated.
It's an issue affecting all of us." The publication of such environment protection goals has become
one of the strategies we are focusing on building upon this foundation. (Companies, 2022)

Our environmental protections are founded on a framework of standards that are meant to
guide both our long-term sustainability practices and the day-to-day choice of our global leadership,
workers, and Cast Mates.

Get a beneficial influence upon that community in which we run our enterprises

• Make use of our one-of-a-kind information, services, but also interactions motivate people to do
their share to benefit the environment

• Minimize our enterprises' ecological impact, Items, companies, producers, licences, and supply
chain are all examples of production chain.

• Encourage a culture of environmental stewardship among our executives, staff, Cast Members,
and visitors

• Collaborate with industrial partners, non-governmental groups, and others academic

institutions, government entities, and others to accomplish long-term transformation and
environmental benefits safeguard the environment for future generations.

With us method to sustainable development is based on research and analyses like where
our business employees have the most carbon footprint, but also locations with which we can the
more actually reduce that affect.

Researchers have picked areas in which we will target all activities within next generation
based on these criteria: carbon dioxide emissions, freshwater, wastes, commodities, and green
architecture construction. Although these areas are intimately intertwined and frequently overlap,
we have set different aims for each in the categories below.

Progress toward the objectives listed above will be published on a yearly basis going to begin
with Disney's 2022 Integrated Reporting, that will also contain data from 2021.
Emissions

Emission levels

According to the most current Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report, full
t o avert this, our sector must be decarbonized. One of most severe consequences of global
warming, Scientific implies a mix of carbon dioxide emissions, zero-carbon and low-carbon
development, renewable energies and protection, and ambient temperature. Each of the concepts is
a part of the overall solutions. There is a business. play a critical role in the context of low future The
Paris Agreement is in accordance with the Stated Development Goals. (Statista, 2022)

The IPCC's newest science and agreement Cutting pollution benefits for both environmental
and folk's businesses. The Climate Accord and the transitioning in favor of a low-carbon economic.
The carbon economy has the potential to produce $26 billion in financial value worldwide

Emissions of Greenhouse Gases are zero.

Carbon dioxide emissions through our core activities are mostly the measure of energy being
used at our disneyland paris, huge market departments, as well as the gasoline for use by our cruises
Our increasing supply chain, particularly companies engaged in the making and consumption goods,
generates enormous emissions. Disney-branded goods / services are disseminated to markets
through a number of business links, including large licensing agreements, creating uncertainty in
your capacity to estimate and quantify frequency or severity, as well as our amount of authority and
power over them. These differing levels of responsibility are represented in our 2030 sustainability
goals and have an impact on how we participate throughout our value chains.
 In accordance with the Paris Agreement, we are expressing overall goal for Viewpoints 1
through 2, so by that close of 2022, it will disclose goals and a plan for Field of view 3 and our
significant licensing arrangements.

Since 2009 until now Disney company retained a big goal of being zero or negative carbon
emissions. We are on pace to accomplish with us 2013 objective of reducing pollutants by 50% lower
current levels by 2020, so we can Its accomplishments would be reported in our 2020 Reports, which
will be issued in the springtime of 2021. (Choices, 2022)

Meanwhile, we've set a new goal that will help us move closer to our goal of zero energy
pollution: achieve big fat zero for Area of View 1 & 2 pollutants by 2030.

A plan for attaining net reduction in Scopes 1 and 2 Those preceding knowledge projections
are used to calculate pollution through 2030 paradigm of reducing:

1. Identified and resolved by environmental sustainability

2. Taken to prevent by efficiency

3. Using lower-carbon forms of energy to overall health renewable resources carbon

substitutes

4. Participating in earth's climate options that have been accredited

Our determined to reduce our carbon impact first by saved pollution, followed by decreases

whenever it is appropriate Global climatic measures, on the other hand, are a viable option unless
technical improvement has resulted in a crucial mitigating tool scaled. We are also taking steps to
reduce our environmental impact as we seek to examine our footprint.

Wherever possible, We will act accordingly on Scope 3 pollutants, focusing on reducing the
environmental impact of items in our value chain preliminary ideas for avoiding and reducing our
Scope 1

as well as:

• Including environmental standards in design and building new investment construction, including
such motels, entertainment, and office towers structures, manufacturing plants, and cloud services

• Consistently invest in initiatives and improvements that benefit the business improved productivity
in current activities.

• Beginning to transform reduced energy new technologies to help increase the move to more
environmentally friendly sources of energy

• Obtaining energy power through it on development coordination with various companies and
other ways.

Energy with no CO2 emissions

The power sourcing is largely emphasized a few key locations, with theme parks accounting for over
three-quarters of our global electrical use. In addition to these theme parks, researchers maintain
substantial schools throughout New York and Los Angeles a lot of small locations and across the
world. Growing overall share of electrical energy in their inventory is crucial to achieve our goal for
net zero carbon emissions by 2050. Furthermore, each of these domains has distinct variables
impacting our ability to migrate to wire-connected sources, such as renewables availability, load
requirements, and regulatory regimes. By 2030, the Walt Disney Company has vowed to acquire or
create 100 % certified low gain for its direct operations globally.

Innovation in Low-Carbon Fuel

A crucial component of the approach is engaging in low gas technologies. Our strategy for reaching
net zero emissions of greenhouse gases. The preponderance of our existing gasoline use is for Disney
Cruise Company despite the fact that Walt Disney World has mobility fleets. In addition to Disney
World Resort, we have some other resorts. In terms of the total cruise business, Disney is a minor
player. Player, but we aspire to be a change agent, assisting creation of low-carbon fuels through
research and development, as well as assistance for developing technologies supply chain logistics,
as well as collaboration with our supplier partners in the industry We shall rely on these techniques,
which are based on Collaboration – to foster industry-wide change.

The Walt Disney Company is dedicated to working with funding in reduced energy technology by
industrial groupings. The following are examples of early work toward this goal:

• The use of plug-in electricity on our ocean liners at specific ports while docked in order to save fuel

• Film-piloted rechargeable and energy from the sun turbines & television productions

• EV chargers have been deployed at Walt Disney World, Disneyland Resort, and other Disney
properties as well as Disneyland Paris for both tourist and business housing.

• Geothermal energy is being used in place of furnaces at Disneyland Paris natural gas to be
displaced

• The 3 original Disney cruise liners that are set to debut. Dual-fuel ships are expected to be built
throughout the next decade. Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) will be used to power the vehicle reduced
carbon footprint than conventional fuel LNG eliminates Sulfur and particle pollution cause anxiety
and impair our quality of life.

Oceans and water

Disney understands the importance of freshwater sustaining environments, as well as a

significant source for populations as well as our global businesses Water is a substance. Common
resources, and we are aware of Disney's Operations have an influence on the conditions of the
nearby watershed. As well as the state of our seas As a result of this are dedicated to achieving aims
which might ensure international and regional freshwater as well as marine supply security through
upcoming generations

Sites with Waste Reduction Ending Up In The Dumpsite

Disney is dedicated to achieving zero waste to landfill by 2030 for all of its completely owned
and operated resorts and hotels.

Humans could well succeed by providing a holistic sewage treatment approach It is based on
decreasing waste on our properties, particularly food scraps; repurposing commodities; being
deliberate about material sourcing; improving reusable products; and emphasizing awareness and
education with our clients and workers. Some waste from our complicated operations might well be
ineligible for any of these suggested reduction methods.
In these circumstances, if ecologically and socially appropriate waste to energy choices exist, we may
enhance such efforts with waste to energy solutions. We will collaborate with community partners
to conduct research and development. (Gov, 2022)

The particular method and opportunity to access Such goal would be affected by technology
improvements or the ever waste markets. Our waste reduction to landfill programs, in particular,
help uphold Disney's commitment to lowering food waste As we throw food away, humans throw
away everything that involved towards cultivating, processing, packing, and distributing it. To
contribute, Walt Disney World has joined the EPA's Food Waste 2030 Champions program goal and
will accomplish an atleast 50 percent kitchen waste diversion. Every year, we will reflect on our
efforts to reduce food waste.

Our Disney Company is dedicated to preserving and improving valuable ecological treasures.
Protecting the environment, Disney believing, is critical to a business and potential, enhancing
profits for shareholders, motivating our Members Of the cast, staff and visitors, as well as providing
that together we can afford to create outstanding creative content for better future.

Researchers should collaborate for realize such sustainability requirements also while motivating
future generations of environmentalists throughout the world, leveraging Disney's unrivaled
creativity and organizational expertise.

Resources

The Walt Disney delivers tales and personalities to life via creative and entertaining specific
items and interactive design in hundreds of brands, including toys, t-shirts, cuisine, novels and
games consoles To accomplish this, we provide products to the customers at our venues and
businesses, and we have already licensed our animals and stories to third parties, allowing others to
manufacture and sell Disney-branded goods.

The Walt Disney Company is now the nation's biggest distributor. Our licensed goods are
manufactured in approximately 40,000 facilities in nearly 100 countries using a variety of different
business structures. This industrial network and worldwide reach combine to form a highly
complicated supply network, many of whom are many degrees distant from its internal operations.

To methodically examine the effect we have through our product line, Researchers
established a number of material properties that are constantly used in large quantities across a
wide range of product groups in both our immediate and registered industrial production, and/or
are known to have significant environmental effects associated with their own producers and use:
forest products such as manuscript, timber, and thumb; textile materials; and polymers.
 Their materials goals would be to minimize the environmental impact of such resources
whilst still increasing the overall resilience from their supply chain. Nevertheless, it's simply one
example. the first step.

Humans know there are further documents to discuss and more questions to be answered.
work must be done to improve the protection of the environment of most of our goods and the
factories that manufacture them.

Use environmentally friendly environmental things

Disney highlights the significance of sustainable forestry and aiding native population in
vulnerable ecosystems worldwide. Beginning with something like a carbon agenda in 2013,
businesses investigated sustainable means of acquiring commodities and resources out of the
woods.  Researchers would like to make certain that we encourage woodland protection and
management usage, that we help people relying on forestry for our economic and social health, and
that we safeguard forest ecosystems.

We support functioning forests that use sustainable and ethical forest management
practices to prevent devastation, which serves to enhance the number of ecologically approved
wood devices on the market. Forest conservation strategies must take into account local residents'
socioeconomic well though and property rights. Researchers gained more knowledge those have
generated the first-ever Forest Management Plans for landowners that meet Forest Stewardship
Council (FSC) accredited criteria, as well as training programmes that assist emerging economies in
building the capacity for scenery threshold conservation, through our investment portfolios in
natural weather solutions. Through coordinated efforts, we will examine and analyze and create
effective ways to enhance conservation and sustainable and sustainable forestry management.

With complement to corporate attempts to protect but also regenerate forests, we pledge
to manage our procurement and use of forest management materials that can have a direct
influence on degradation with in accompanying ways: 

• By 2030, all papers use it as a principal component in any trademark containers will be 100 percent
recycled or sourced from a recognized or certified renewable sources.

• Most hardwood used it as a core material in Disney-branded goods will be recovered, approved, or
renewable by 2030.

• Most palm oil and palm kernel oil used during Disney-branded items will originate from verified
renewable materials by 2030.

Disney does have a strong preference for fiber that is FSC Forest Management and Chain of
Custody certified. Sources accredited by the Projects for the Forest Stewardship Council (PEFC) or
the Forest Products Initiative are two other recognized origins for our particle paper and packaging
(SFI). All commodities using palm oil must be approved by the Rainforest Alliance Initiative.

Design for Sustainability

Structures and associated production need a significant quantity of environmental materials,

amounting for 39% of all power greenhouse gas emissions each year, according to the United
Nations Environment Programme.
 To reach the Paris Climate Agreement targets, the IPCC study forecasts that the energy
intensity of the built environment—a measurement of just how much fuel structures use —must
increase by 30% by 2030.

Sustainable design and construction have been a key part of Disney's approach from its foundation.
Our external structure, which encompasses anything from theme parks to offices, is not only the
most visible component of corporate impact, but this also contributes for 67 percentage of our
Category 1 and 2 pollutants in 2019.

It would accounted about 67 % of our Category 1 and 2 pollutants in 2019. We've already put in
efficient energy management equipment, as well as greater lighting and HVAC equipment. This
enables us to lower our power use and gain greater command over electricity devices.LEED
accreditation has also been granted to a number of our projects, including the Aulani Resort in
Hawaii, our Creative Campus in Glendale, and our data center in North Carolina.

We are well aware that we'll have to do much more in order to fulfill our 2030 ambitions.
We will keep driving economy and enhancements in our present assets while also insuring that all of
your new assets including buildings are planned and built with respect to the environment to reduce
the environmental impact of our built environment. (WWF, 2022)

Assets Already in Place

Increasing the efficiency of our residential structures and assets has been and will continues
to be a critical component of our sustainability plan. Previously, these initiatives included everything
from chiller repairs and lighting retrofits to the installation of advanced energy management
systems.

Our operational retrofit requirements will be consistent with the new construction
standards stated below, assuring ensuring we make optimum selections for power, freshwater, and
sewage treatment in both existing and newly created surroundings

Updated Resources

New assets enable us both to eliminate pollution entirely by making procurement and build
decisions that decrease our carbon impact for the useful life of an asset, while also cutting carbon of
nonrenewable, water management, data use, and end up wasting, and developing great places with
enhanced quality. As a result, we are developing long-term objectives for large initiatives in the fields
of pollution, groundwater, and end up wasting:

• Projects would be designed to be near net zero21, with an emphasis on energy

conservation, digitalization to lower fuel consumption, and the on resources.

• Programs will cut water use by enacting improvements in productivity, collecting and
reusing freshwater, and maximizing the usage of non-potable sources.

• In the United States and Europe, all new projects

• Waste minimization procedures will be developed, incorporating planning towards

repurposing whenever feasible, particularly within cafes and restaurants, and creating specialized
garbage sorting facilities. All new building projects inside the Americas And europe will achieve or
exceed 90 percent construction recycling rate. (2022, Forbes)

The Walt Disney Company is focused to preserving and improving the environment for
future generations. We think that environmental conservation is vital to establishing a responsible
organization that promotes value for shareholders, including our Cast And crew, staff, and visitors,
and to continuing to produce extraordinary immersive experiences for future generations. We will
collaborate to attain these goals. sustainability goals while also inspiring a young crop of
environmentalism through out world, harnessing Disney's unparalleled creativity and organizational
skills.
