Nielsen’s global environmental sustainability efforts represent our holistic approach across our internal footprint, grassroots work and varied stakeholder groups, allowing us to create a positive ripple effect throughout our value chain. Nielsen’s Supply Chain Responsibility program plays an integral role in that. The Supply Chain program at Nielsen engages with our suppliers on the full spectrum of impacts that our purchasing has-environmental, social and ethical-to ensure that we stay true to every aspect of our citizenship commitments.
"尼尔森每年的购买力超过 20 亿美元。供应链责任总监乔斯林-阿扎达（Jocelyn Azada）说："对我们来说，这意味着我们拥有价值 20 亿美元的选择权。"我们可以利用我们的机构购买力，为推动我们的世界走向可持续发展、繁荣的未来做出积极的贡献，我们致力于做到这一点"。
The reduction of our greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and contributions to climate solutions are at the top of the list of our Supply Chain Responsibility program’s environmental impacts, as we seek to expand our knowledge in this space. And to determine where we are now in our emissions’ measurement journey, Nielsen recently worked with a third-party to conduct our first GHG value chain assessment to understand our global supply chain footprint. The assessment enables Nielsen to broaden the reporting of our supply chain across all fifteen categories as outlined by the Corporate Value Chain (Scope 3) Standard (GHG Protocol), a value-add to our commitment to responsible and transparent reporting practices.
评估帮助我们了解了范围 3 各类别的相关性和排放量，最终计算结果突出表明，外购商品/服务和资本货物是我们供应链排放量的主要来源。这些数据有助于我们在未来几年做出采购决策。此外，当我们将我们的结果与其他专业服务机构的结果进行比较时，我们了解到我们的排放情况与行业平均水平一致。这些发现以及对范围 3 跟踪的持续改进建议，将为尼尔森的供应链战略提供更明确的方向，从而在我们能够产生最大影响的领域实现最佳效率。
“This is yet another vital step in Nielsen’s continuous improvement journey to investigate and expand our internal measurements to scale our collective external impact,” said Yamini Dixit, Director, Global Responsibility & Sustainability. “Focusing on responsible inputs is as crucial as building a desired output to truly and positively move the sustainability needle.“
尼尔森以监控其供应链的环境、社会和公司治理实践为荣，从内部可持续发展评估开始，涵盖全球五个地区的数百家供应商，涉及超过 10 亿美元的公司支出。这项新的供应链温室气体评估（也称为 "范围 3 温室气体"）为我们的既定流程增添了新的内容，为我们提供了更具体的排放测量数据可见性，这将有助于我们确定减少碳足迹的相关行动。
Nielsen has reported a detailed breakdown of each category in our 2019 Global Environmental Policy & Guidelines Across Functions.
