DEDICATING OUR POWER
TO A CLEAN FUTURE
FOR OUR CHILDREN
Driven by the undeniable evidence of climate change, Exxaro is continuously
exploring new business opportunities in the low-carbon future world, believing that
we can provide solutions to the global dual-energy and climate challenge,
especially in Africa.
With Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) issues consuming the attention
of the investment community more than ever over the past year, our activities
illustrate our ability to deliver successfully on ESG and financial objectives.
In our ESG report, we demonstrate our response to an evolving operating context
and our approach to transitioning towards a secure and more sustainable world
for all.
As part of our commitment, the Exxaro board approved the implementation of
a Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) recommendation
throughout the company in 2019. In 2020, to be consistent in our climate-change
action, we published our Climate Change Position Statement to all stakeholders
and placed it central to our transition we have embarked on as a business.
As detailed in our statement, we at Exxaro believe that the impacts of climate
change present a serious challenge to society, our mining communities
and operations, and we are committed to playing our part in creating a just energy
transition to a world that will attain less than 2°C of global warming by 2100.
