To advance our fossil fuel free ambition, the program will match 100% of electricity consumed with renewable electricity. Currently, we are exploring a pilot program in Japan, and expect to expand in other markets as charging infrastructure and vehicle availability allow. We recognize that a broader policy framework is required to affect change at scale and are proud to be part of EV100, which seeks to make electric transport the new normal by 2030. Engaging employees We are inspired by our colleagues who are innovating to address climate, health and equity, and proud to offer a range of opportunities for our employees to engage at work, at home and in our communities. Last year saw strong participation in new benefits designed to help Biogen employees reduce their use of fossil fuels at home, as well as the rapid growth of ourIMPACT, an Employee Resource Network focused on climate, health and equity ( See “program progress” chart ). ourIMPACT hosted more than 20 events on topics including EVs, zero waste, environmental justice, sustainable food, coping with the climate crisis and more. In 2021, Biogen hosted our first Healthy Climate, Healthy Lives Employee Innovation Challenge, which encouraged employees to share promising ideas around climate and health equity goals. We hosted events attended by more than 1,000 employees and received 180+ ideas from 14 sites worldwide. We are working to implement many of the ideas, including the four challenge winners: – Fossil fuel reduction by gene therapy suppliers: Expand expiration dates to reduce waste and decrease emissions from manufacturing (Dan Blake, Manufacturing Sciences). – Global Packaging Development: Eliminate 80% of insulated solutions by 2025 (Laurent Dionet, Packaging). – Plastic Drum Recycling Partnership: Recycle plastic drums for shipping and storage of media powders (Bill Scott, Manufacturing Sciences). – Rechargeable Injector Pen: Develop a durable and reusable pen that allows for the insertion of a new cartridge and a new needle for every dose (Anders Niklason, BBU Commercial Account Manager). Fossil fuel related air pollution is responsible for one out of every five deaths globally. Nearly 80% of these deaths could be avoided by reducing pollution levels to the WHO’s new air quality guidelines.” Dan Blake was one of the first Healthy Climate, Healthy Lives Employee Innovation Challenge winners.
