The Canadian company is currently participating in the World Climate Summit and has recently renewed its climate neutral certification for the fourth year running.<\/h4>\n

MONTREAL, Nov. 08, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Climate issues are more crucial than ever, and the ALDO\u00a0Group is dedicated to maintaining its commitment to building a low-carbon future. In addition to announcing the renewal of its climate neutral certification for a fourth consecutive year, the company is currently participating in the 11th<\/sup> World Climate Summit in Glasgow, Scotland. A few weeks ago, the Canadian fashion footwear company also joined We Mean Business, an international coalition of more than 600 companies calling upon the leaders of the world\u2019s largest economies to reinforce their climate action objectives during the G20 and COP26 discussions.<\/p>\n

\u201cInspired by the COP21 in Paris 6 years ago, we made a decision in 2018 to become the first climate neutral fashion footwear company. This year\u2019s COP will be a critical meeting – there is massive worldwide support for bold action on climate change. We hope that our participation will contribute in a small way to a very big global challenge,\u201d said David Bensadoun, CEO of the ALDO\u00a0Group.<\/p>\n

World Climate Summit: Rallying the Fashion Industry\u2019s Stakeholders<\/strong><\/p>\n

On November 8 at 10\u00a0a.m. (GMT), Jonathan Frankel, Senior Vice-President of APS at the ALDO\u00a0Group, will join the panel Lead by Example – Harnessing Innovation Towards a Carbon Neutral Fashion & Textile Industry<\/em> to discuss how the fashion industry can work towards reducing its environmental footprint and how collaboration between manufacturers, designers and consumers is key to reach carbon neutrality.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe long-term sustainability of the global fashion industry requires systemic change that goes beyond the capabilities of any one company. We cannot fight this problem alone. We strongly believe in collaboration, and that is why we wanted to take part in this unifying event,\u201d said Jonathan Frankel.<\/p>\n

Well aware that the fashion industry has an impact on global warming, the ALDO Group intensified its climate actions in recent years. The organization is also a member of multi-stakeholder associations that promote partnerships for concerted industry-wide actions, such as the Sustainable Apparel Coalition (SAC), the Fashion Pact and the United Nations Fashion Industry Charter for Climate Action (UNFCCC).<\/p>\n

The ALDO Group\u2019s Journey Towards Reducing Its Carbon Footprint<\/strong><\/p>\n

In 2018, the ALDO Group became the first fashion footwear and accessories company in the world to be certified climate neutral for its corporate stores, offices and distribution centres. The organization then reinforced its environmental commitment by also having eCommerce shipments and product transportation certified climate neutral.<\/p>\n

In 2020, the company reduced carbon emissions from its operations by 74% compared to 2013. This year, it carried forward its sustainability journey by continuing to reduce its net emissions and compensating the unavoidable ones through a combination of nature-based forest conservation and clean energy projects. And for the fourth consecutive year, the ALDO Group has received its climate neutral company certification from the South Pole Group – a leading provider of global sustainability solutions and services with a transparent and rigorous certification process.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s very exciting to see the ALDO Group continuing to make progress on climate action. The company has demonstrated industry leadership and we congratulate them on their commitments and ever-increasing ambition,\u201d said Renat Heuberger, CEO and co-founder of South Pole.<\/p>\n

Having achieved significant reductions for its operations\u2019 emissions, the ALDO Group has been addressing other important issues: from waste management to its positive impact on local communities, from teaming up with partners to improve their social and environmental footprint to promoting diversity and inclusion. In terms of products, the company aims to continue introducing more innovative low impact materials in its collections and to increase its use of recycled materials, such as polyester. The company is also working to decarbonize it supply chain by working closely with its suppliers.<\/p>\n

It is also important to remember that in 2019, the ALDO Group joined the Science Based Targets<\/u><\/a> Initiative (SBTi). Its GHG reduction targets are therefore in line with climate science.<\/p>\n

Member of the We Mean Business Coalition<\/strong><\/p>\n

Recognizing the need for collective climate action, the ALDO Group signed the We Mean Business<\/u><\/a> coalition\u2019s open letter earlier this month. Ahead of the crucial G20 and COP\u00a026 summits, more than 600 companies from around the world called on the leaders of the world\u2019s largest economies to do their utmost to limit global temperature rise to 1.5\u00a0\u00b0C and to reinforce their objectives. The signatories represent sectors ranging from energy and transportation to fashion and construction.<\/p>\n
