The world’s natural systems are at risk, and we all have a role to play in protecting the Earth’s natural treasures.
In 2021, dentsu became signatories to the WWF Business for Nature’s Call to Action asking governments to adopt ambitious nature policies.
In 2022, we invested in nature-based projects to cover the remaining 47% of our Scope 1 and 2 emissions for our international business (excluding Japan), including forest conservation initiatives in Zimbabwe and local renewable energy projects in India and Brazil. Aside from positive environmental impacts, these projects also support local communities and sustainable development in the areas.
