At the LEGO Group, we’re playing our part in building a sustainable future and creating a better world for children to inherit. Our sustainability strategy covers the impact areas: children, environment and people. We continue to reach millions of children with Learning through Play initiatives organised through local community engagement activities, product and financial donations and programmes, such as Prescription for Play, in the U. S. and China. We reduced the amount of waste produced in the first half of 2023 by better managing waste from the production of LEGO® elements (e. g. LEGO bricks) at our factories in Denmark, China and Hungary; and reducing wood pallet waste in Mexico and the Czech Republic. We are on track to meet our 2023 target. Carbon reduction initiatives included increased production of solar power at our factory sites and continued focus on energy efficiency initiatives, such as improved and more detailed temperature control across all buildings at our factory in Monterrey, Mexico, allowing us to consume as little energy as possible, while ensuring optimal working conditions for our employees. We continue to make progress to achieve our aim to make our packaging from more sustainable materials and to remove single use plastic from LEGO boxes by the end of 2025. In the first half of 2023, we continued to introduce paper-based bags in LEGO boxes in Europe. We remain committed to investing in new packaging equipment to support the global roll-out during the next two years.
