Environmental indicators

This table shows which elements of the Global Reporting Initiative guidelines are covered in our report
or elsewhere on the GSK website.


GRI Guideline     Covered? Link
Performance: Environmental
Materials
EN1 Core Total materials use other than water by type (report in tonnes, kg or volume) No  
EN2 Core Percentage of materials used that are wastes (processed or unprocessed) from sources external to the reporting organisation. (Refers to both post-consumer recycled material and waste from industrial sources) No  
Energy
EN3 Core Direct energy use segmented by primary source. Report on all energy sources used by the reporting organisation for its own operations as well as for the production and delivery of energy products (e.g. electricity or heat) to other organisations Yes Energy consumption
EN4 Core Indirect energy use. Report on all energy used to produce and deliver energy products purchased by the reporting organisation (e.g. electricity or heat) No  
EN17 Additional Initiatives to use renewable energy sources and increase energy efficiency Yes Energy consumption
EN18 Additional Energy consumption footprint (i.e. annualised lifetime energy requirements) of major products No  
EN19 Additional Other indirect (upstream/downstream) energy use and implications, such as organisational travel, product lifecycle management and use of energy-intensive materials Yes Transport
EN5 Core Total water use Yes Water use
EN20 Additional Identify water sources and related ecosystems/habitats significantly affected by the organisation's use of water No  
EN21 Additional Annual withdrawals of ground and surface water as a percent of annual renewable quantity of water available from the sources No  
EN22 Additional Total recycling and reuse of water. Includes wastewater and other used water (e.g. cooling water) No Report volume of wastewater and COD.

Wastewater
Biodiversity
EN6 Core Location and size of land owned, leased, or managed in biodiversity-rich habitats No  
EN7 Core Description of the major impacts on biodiversity associated with the organisation's activities and/ or products and services in terrestrial, freshwater, and marine environments Yes Biodiversity
EN23 Additional Total amount of land owned, leased, or managed for production activities or extractive use by the organisation No  
EN24 Additional Amount of impermeable surface as a percentage of land purchased or leased No  
EN25 Additional Impacts of organisation's activities and operations on protected and sensitive areas (e.g. IUCN protected areas categories 1-4, world heritage sites and biosphere reserves) No  
EN26 Additional Changes to natural habitats resulting from the reporting organisation's activities and percentage of habitat protected or restored No  
EN27 Additional Objectives, programmes and targets for protecting and restoring native ecosystems and species in degraded areas Partial Position on biodiversity and examples of biodiversity initiatives:

Environment/Biodiversity
EN28 Additional Number of IUCN Red List species with habitats in areas affected by the reporting organisation's operations No  
EN29 Additional List business units currently operating or planning operations in or around protected or sensitive areas No  
Emissions, Effluents and Waste
EN8 Core Greenhouse gas emissions (CO2, CH4, N20, HFCs, PFCs, SF6). Report separate subtotals for each gas in tonnes of CO2 equivalent for the following: Partial CO2 and HFCs released by ancillary equipment and metered-dose inhalers:

Energy and global warming potential

Environment/Ozone depletion

Environment/Product stewardship/Metered-dose inhalers
    direct emissions from sources owned or controlled by the reporting entity Partial CO2 only:

Energy consumption
    indirect emissions from imported electricity heat or steam Partial CO2 only:

Energy consumption
EN9 Core Use and emissions of ozone-depleting substances. Report each figure separately in accordance with Montreal Protocol Annexes A, B, C and E in tonnes of CFC-11 equivalents Yes Ozone depletion
EN10 Core NOx, SOx and other significant air emissions by type. Yes Energy consumption

Volatile organic compounds
EN11 Core Total amount of waste by type and destination (i.e. the method by which it is treated, including composting, reuse, recycling, recovery, incineration or landfilling) Yes Hazardous waste

Non-hazardous waste

Recycling
EN12 Core Significant discharges to water by type Partial Total waste water volume and COD:

Wastewater
EN13 Core Significant spills of chemicals, oils and fuels in terms of total number and total volume (significance defined in terms of both the size of the spill and impact on the surrounding environment) No  
EN30 Additional Other relevant indirect greenhouse gas emissions i.e. as a consequence of the reporting entity but occur from sources owned or controlled by another entity Partial Environment/Suppliers
EN31 Additional Identify all production, transport, import or export of any waste deemed "hazardous" under the terms of the Basel Convention Annex I, II, III and VIII No  
EN32 Additional Identify water sources and related ecosystems/ habitats significantly affected by the organisation's discharges of water and runoff No  
Suppliers
EN33 Additional Performance of suppliers relative to environmental components of programmes and procedures described in response to Management Systems and Governance section of GRI Guidelines Yes Environment/Suppliers
Products and Services
EN14 Core Significant environmental impacts of principle products and services (describe and quantify where relevant) Yes Product stewardship
EN15 Core Percentage of the weight of products sold that is reclaimable at the end of the products' useful life and percentage that is actually reclaimed No  
Compliance
EN16 Core Incidents of and fines for non-compliance with all applicable international declarations/ conventions/ treaties, and national, subnational, regional, and local regulations associated with environmental issues (explain in terms of countries of operation) Yes Environment/Environmental management
Transport
EN34 Additional Describe significant environmental impacts of transportation used by reporting organisation for logistical purposes Yes Global warming potential from transport:

Transport
Overall
EN35 Additional Total environmental expenditures by type (explain definitions used for types of expenditures) Yes Environment/Environmenal management
