OVERVIEW ENERGY & MATERIALS HEALTH & RESILIENCE WORK & PROSPERITY GOVERNANCE APPENDIX FY22 IMPACT REPORT 11 Improve our operations Targets * Driving net-zero Net-zero carbon carbon emissions emissions for Scopes 1, 2, and 3 annually, beginning fiscal year 2021 Achieved and ongoing Autodesk continues to strive for excellence in embedding sustainability throughout our business. This reduces our own impact while enabling us to thoughtfully engage with our customers and partners on their own sustainability journeys. For the second year in a row, we neutralized our GHG emissions across our operations and entire value chain, through the deployment of the Autodesk Carbon Fund. Autodesk first committed to achieving net-zero carbon across Scopes 1, 2, and 3 on an annual basis beginning in fiscal year 2021. Since setting this target, definitions of net- zero have converged; most notably illustrated by the release of the Science Based Targets initiative’s (SBTi) Corporate Net-Zero Standard in October 2021. We welcome this increased rigor and standardization. Our net-zero carbon target is a journey guided by: ● Climate targets grounded in the latest science and aligned to a 1.5˚C climate trajectory ● Prioritization of internal investments and activities that decarbonize our operations and those of our suppliers ● A commitment to neutralize and compensate for all remaining Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions on an annual basis through the purchase of high-impact carbon avoidance and removal offsets, as well as renewable energy certificates. The SBTi validated our GHG emissions reduction targets in fiscal year 2022 and determined that our fiscal year 2031 Scope 1 and 2 target is aligned with the 1.5˚C trajectory. Our Environmental Policy underpins the company’s efforts in our own operations and with our products and services. * Since setting this target in 2020, definitions of net-zero carbon have increasingly standardized. We continue to align our activities with best practice. † To estimate home office energy consumption, we follow the Work from Home methodology “No Survey” approach that was developed by Anthesis. ‡ This target covers all of Autodesk’s Scope 3 emissions, expanding on the categories included in our SBTi-validated Scope 3 emissions target. § This reduction was largely due to a 93% decrease in GHG emissions from business travel and employee commuting as a result of COVID-19 travel restrictions. We anticipate an increase in business travel-related and overall Scope 3 GHG emissions in the coming years.
