    Quantity of high-risk natural commodities sourced from land/ocean/ freshwater (C3.1)

    Quantity of high-risk natural commodities82 (tonnes) sourced from land/ocean/freshwater, split into types, including proportion of total natural commodities.

    For forestry and paper sector organisations reporting the core global metric:

    • This metric only applies to procured volumes;
    • High-risk natural commodities refers to certified and non- certified materials sourced. These should be broken down by regions classified as high risk and low risk according to the company risk assessment. This includes both from natural ecosystems and established plantations; and
    • For wood products, types refers to biomass, pulp or wood;
    In reporting the core global metric, an organisation should:

    • Provide information on the organisation’s traceability and due diligence systems.

  • Driver of nature change: Resource use/replenishment

    Quantity of high-risk natural commodities sourced from land/ocean/ freshwater (C3.1)

    Quantity of high-risk natural commodities83 (tonnes) sourced under a sustainable management plan or certification programme, including proportion of total high- risk natural commodities.

    In reporting the core global metric, an organisation should:

    • Note that this metric only applies to procured volumes;
    • Provide information on the forest management conditions for the wood or fibre, such as whether these are certified by a broadly recognised third party certification system with a global presence, such as the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC) and Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI). “Controlled Wood”, “Controlled Sources” or “SFI Fiber Sourcing” are excluded from this definition;
    • Refer to the FAO definition of sustainable forest management (see glossary).
