Climate Change
We recognise that climate change can affect our businesses through changes in environmental conditions, such as an increase in severe weather events, or through changes in the business environment due to the transition to a low carbon economy.
We recognise the mining industry has a critical role in helping the world transition to a more sustainable future.
Gbaya has identified and qualitatively assessed the physical and transitional climate-related risks and opportunities associated with climate change over different time horizons in accordance with TCFD recommendations.
Electrification
The mining sector is critical for producing the minerals needed for a low carbon future, yet at the same time needs to reduce its contribution to atmospheric greenhouse gases.
We believe we must play our part to help decarbonise the industry while continuing to provide services that are essential for economic growth and provision of commodities that will enable decarbonisation. We are leading the way in decarbonising mines.
Climate change position statement
We recognise that climate change demands urgent action. Climate change is one of the major issues of our time, requiring genuine leadership from all actors – government, civil society and the private sector.
Our Climate Change Position Statement outlines our recognition of the science of climate change and ongoing commitment to manage the risks and minimise the impacts and associated with a changing climate.
