KERING’S ENVIRONMENTAL PROFIT & LOSS ACCOUNT WHAT IS AN EP&L?
PROFITS = BENEFITS TO SOCIETY LOSSES = IMPACTS ON ENVIRONMENT
An Environmental Profit & Loss is an account that
measures in monetary value (€) the environmental impacts on society that
are generated by a company across its entire value chain,
be it within its own operations or its supply chain.
THE VALUE LOST/GAINED BY SOCIETY TOTAL IMPACT OF BRINGING OUR DUE TO OUR ACTIVITIES PRODUCTS TO MARKET
24 November 2017 7 WHY USE AN EP&L?
• Understand our true impacts and identify hotspots
• Reveal risks and find effective solutions for mitigation
• Use as decision-making tool and influence daily choices
• Monitor progress in 2025 strategy, while forecasting and preparing for the future
• Be transparent with our stakeholders
24 November 2017 8 BIODIVERSITY WITHIN THE EP&L
• We know that business can have impacts on species & ecosystems • The degradation of ecosystems is measured as loss of ecosystem services through the “Land Use Change (LUC)” indictor in the EP&L • Other indirect impacts on ecosystems and biodiversity are captured to some extent through the other five indicators in the EP&L • However, we also recognize that we need to capture a broader scope of impacts on biodiversity (e.g. endangered species) and this does not need to be “monetized” within the EP&L
