NORTHAMPTON, MA / ACCESSWIRE / October 3, 2023 / Engaging with key stakeholders on the development of a robust GHG emissions accounting framework for land use is foundational to our commitment to reduce operational and value chain GHG emissions. In 2022, International Paper was an active member of the Review Group for the GHG Protocol Land Sector and Removals Guidance development. We also initiated a pilot implementation of the Guidance - which will be finalized in 2023 - and we actively provided feedback to the revision process through our participation in the WBCSD Forest Solutions Group.

We further engaged with the World Wildlife Fund in the development of the SBTi Forest, Land and Agriculture (FLAG) target-setting guidance. This guidance provides the world's first standard method for companies in landintensive sectors to set science-based targets that include land-based emission reductions and removals. The GHG Protocol Land Sector and Removals Guidance will underpin the forest sector's FLAG target-setting methodology
