Full assessment

Toyota Boshoku Corp has established a process to align its external engagement activities with its climate commitments, primarily through its membership in industry associations. As it states, "トヨタ紡ç¹"が所属する『æ - ¥æœ¬è‡ªå‹•車部å"å·¥æ¥­ä¼šã€ã¯ã€ã€Žæ - ¥æœ¬çµŒæ¸ˆå›£ä½"é€£åˆä¼šã€ã¨æ° - 候変動é - ¢é€£ã‚'含むç'°å¢ƒç›®æ¨™ã«ã¤ã„て折衝だ- ています," and it has set a more stringent 50% GHG reduction target by 2030, noting that "トヨタ紡ç¹"は、æ - ¥æœ¬è‡ªå‹•車部å"å·¥æ¥­ä¼šã®ä¼šå"¡ã¨ã - て、部å"å·¥æ¥­ä¼šã§å®šã‚ãŸGHGæŽ'出量削減目標(2030å¹´ CO2æŽ'出量46%減)よりも自社独自で掲ã'ã‚‹GHGæŽ'出量目標ã‚'、2030å¹´ 50%減と厳だ- く設定だ- 、目標é"成活動ã‚'実æ - ½ã - ています." The company explains that "ã"のように、トヨタ紡ç¹"は、æ - ¥æœ¬çµŒæ¸ˆå›£ä½"連合会とæ - ¥æœ¬è‡ªå‹•車部å"å·¥æ¥­ä¼šã®æ° - å€™å¤‰å‹•æˆ¦ç•¥ã«ä¸€è‡´ã™ã‚‹ã‚ˆã†ã«å - り組ã‚"でいます," and confirms a "public commitment or position statement to conduct your engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement," answering "Yes." While this demonstrates a clear policy and active alignment of its indirect lobbying through trade associations, we found no evidence of a named individual or formal body overseeing these engagement activities or any detailed process for monitoring and reviewing its lobbying, nor does the company disclose how its direct lobbying efforts are governed or subject to ongoing audit or oversight mechanisms for its climate-related advocacy.
