n Internal stakeholder n External stakeholder CO2 emissions reduced by two percent compared to the previous year The five SDGs most material to the RZB Group, ordered by relevance: • SDG 8: Promote sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment and decent work for all. • SDG 9: Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation. • SDG 13: Take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts. • SDG 16: Promote peaceful and inclusive societies for sustainable development, provide access to justice for all and build effective, accountable and inclusive institutions at all levels. • SDG 5: Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls. In 2016 RBI belonged to the nine percent of companies that made it onto the CDP Climate A List.

Paper consumption is therefore the fourth-biggest cause of our emissions, but nevertheless negligibly low. The effects are evident only in Scope 3. Transport Business travel makes up about 21 percent of emissions with 12,657 t CO2e (minus six percent on the previous year), while parcel service and transport of goods accounts for about six percent with 3,736 t CO2e according to recent surveys. Transport is therefore the second-biggest cause of our emissions. This has an effect on both Scope 1 and Scope 3. Energy Energy consumption makes up about 65 percent of emissions with 38,586 t CO2e (minus nine percent on the previous year) and is the biggest cause of our emissions. Most of this is evident in Scope 2, but partly also in Scopes 1 and 3. The RZB Group’s share of green electricity is about 34 percent (plus 16 percent on the previous year). Water The share of water consumption in our emissions is negligible at 79 kg CO2e and nearly zero percent (minus six percent on the previous year). The CO2e emissions are solely in Scope 3. CO2e emissions The total CO2e of the RZB Group in 2016 was 59,147 t (minus two percent on the previous year). The biggest key performance indicators of our CO2e emissions are energy consumption and business travel. Furthermore, most of the emissions (46 percent) fall in Scope 3 (mostly caused by power consumption, followed by air traffic), followed by Scope 2 with 44 percent (power consumption is also in first place here). In third place is Scope 1 with ten percent, mostly caused by business travel with own cars. Waste With 1,547 t CO2e, waste is negligible and makes up about three percent of emissions (minus five percent on the previous year). The effects are evident only in Scope 3. CO2e emissions of the RZB Group result from Energy consumption Business travel Parcel service and transport of goods Paper consumption Waste Water consumption 65.2% 21.4% 6.3% 4.4% 2.6% 0.0% Scope 1 10% Scope 2 44% Scope 3 46%
