Information Disclosure Based on the TNFD

DENSO has been striving to analyze risks and opportunities and disclose information in accordance with the TNFD (Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures)* so that it can visualize the level of impact that its corporate activities have on the natural environment.

Our corporate activities are underpinned by natural capital such as water, forests, soil, and clean air, and as such, interaction with the natural environment is unavoidable. To that end, we are proceeding with the scientific analysis of the LEAP approach, a process for evaluating natural-related risks and opportunities advocated by the TNFD. We are also conducting an integrated analysis of how climate change and biodiversity relate to and impact our business activities.

* The TNFD is a task force that provides frameworks to corporations for appropriately disclosing information on risks and opportunities pertaining to biodiversity and natural capital.
