2. Climate change Resource depletion – Energy – Water – Materials Increased emissions, contamination & waste Reduced air quality Loss of biodiversity 2 What is the problem?

3. © 2011 Energetics Pty Ltd and AgriFood Skills Australia. All rights reserved. How is economic activity affected by climate change? Agriculture, tourism and insurance Directly affected - more droughts, floods and bush fires. Carbon taxes, energy tariffs and emissions trading. To address climate change, emissions must be reduced Impact upon other sectors Energy sector costs flow through to energy intensive sectors – mining, manufacturing Other indirect impacts include Reduced demand for products Disruption to business activities Potential litigation Brand and reputation risk Longer term global impacts potentially: Large scale refugee movement Political instability Social unrest.

Risks specific to Australia Access to Water Australia is the driest continent on earth Many industry sectors are dependent on access to water for operation.

Things to consider when managing carbon – organisational boundaries Decisions must be made as to how emissions will be aggregated. Three approaches include: GG protocol? Equity share Financial control Operational control Operational control is default boundary! – required for reporting to Australia’s National Energy and Greenhouse Reporting System (NGER) Operational control is default boundary! – required for reporting to Australia’s National Energy and Greenhouse Reporting System (NGER) What is operational control? Defined in Australian law as the right to introduce or implement operating, health and safety or environmental policies

Scope 3 “Emissions from services You use and products You produce” Nat Gas Petrol Process emissions LPG Scope 2 “Fuel burnt for You” Scope 1 “Fuel You Burn” Electricity

Reporting / reduction programs NGER (Australian) – Mandatory reporting of national energy consumption and production and greenhouse gas emissions above legislated thresholds. EEO (Australian) – Mandatory identification of energy efficiency opportunities by energy users above thresholds. CPRS (Australia) – Mandatory purchase of permits to emit all greenhouse gases for emitters above threshold (program delayed to 2013) CDP (International) – Voluntary requests for greenhouse and energy disclosure from over 2,500 organisations. CDP acts on behalf of 534 global institutional investors NB: No longer considered “voluntary” for Australia’s top 200 companies

Aldi – first company in Australia to introduce Carbon Reduction Labels. Suppliers now required to report GHG emissions commit to GHG reductions Aldi – first company in Australia to introduce Carbon Reduction Labels. Suppliers now required to report GHG emissions commit to GHG reductions Woolworths and the Australian Food and Grocery Council conducting study on benefits of carbon labeling

The business case for carbon management – carbon trading Japan – currently designing ETS that is likely to be implemented in 2011 NZ – ETS started 1 July 2010 China - likely to have an ETS EU – existing ETS may legislate a 30% reduction target UK Coalition - setting a floor price for carbon US – multiple regional ETS’ Emissions trading or some form of a carbon price is inevitable NB: Emissions trading works: EU verified emissions showed a decrease of 11% in 2009

11. © 2011 Energetics Pty Ltd and AgriFood Skills Australia. All rights reserved. The business case for carbon management – carbon price Q: If a price on carbon is introduced, who will pay? Some will pay directly eg. Large users of coal such as coal fired power stations Some will pay directly eg. Large users of coal such as coal fired power stations Some will pay indirectly eg. Consumers of electricity / smaller users of fuels Think petrol excise – you pay, but payment collected upstream Some will pay indirectly eg. Consumers of electricity / smaller users of fuels Think petrol excise – you pay, but payment collected upstream

12. © 2011 Energetics Pty Ltd and AgriFood Skills Australia. All rights reserved. The business case for carbon management – what level of price? What might a carbon price be? Interim tax $23 Introduced 1 July 2012 Permit price 5% reduction target for 2020 = $25 in 2013 Transition to trading scheme (variable price) = $20 - $35 in 2015 Regulation eg. ban on all coal - fired generators (incl. boilers) NB: Very costly for some Costs spread across the economy

Risk and opportunity identification These include: Physical – damage to functioning of assets / take advantage of shifting climatic zones Regulatory – exposure to / seize opportunities around: - current and future requirements; - administrative burden; - direct and pass-through carbon price costs (CPRS) Litigation – CEO liability or opportunity (NGER and EEO) Competitive – business environment will change – advantage or risk?

The business case for carbon management Experience shows that sustainability makes good business sense Embedding sustainability within an organisation’s broader business strategies frequently results in organisational and technical innovations that generate both top- and bottom-line returns. Reducing inputs to a business, due to a carbon-constrained economy, reduces costs. Reducing inputs requires new or improved products or even new business lines.
