Climate Commitments and Reduction Targets:

Natura & Co has established ambitious climate targets aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).

• Near-Term Targets:
  • The company has committed to reducing its absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 42% by 2030, using 2020 as the base year. This target was approved by the SBTi in May 2023.
  • Natura & Co Latin America has also committed to achieving Net Zero in its operations by 2030.
  • An additional near-term target aims to reduce Scope 1, 2, and 3 GHG emissions intensity by 13% by 2026, against a 2019 baseline.
• Long-Term Targets:
  • Natura & Co has a long-term commitment to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 42% by 2030, with a Net Zero target by 2050.
  • For Scope 3 emissions, the company commits to reducing those from purchased goods and services, upstream transportation and distribution, and end-of-life treatment of sold products by 42% by 2030 from a 2020 base year. The target boundary includes land-related emissions and removals from bioenergy feedstocks.
