Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions throughout the supply chain
・Referencing the Ministry of the Environment's “Green Value Chain Platform,” we calculated greenhouse gas emissions from the Company's production activities (scope 1 and 2), as well as greenhouse gas emissions throughout the entire supply chain (scope 3) to understand all greenhouse gas emissions related to the テキサスホールデム確率oup’s corporate activities.

Just like the calculation results for domestic groups only, which were tabulated last year, we confirmed that about 60% of greenhouse gas emissions are comprised of Scope 3, category 1 from businesテキサスホールデム確率artners when producing raw materials.
　In addition, beginning this fiscal year, the greenhouse gas emissions of Meiyu-Giken Co., Ltd. which recently became a Group company, were also included and are subject to verification.
