4 _201 2023 UNIVERSAL REGISTRATION DOCUMENT_MICHELIN 4 NON-FINANCIAL STATEMENT Sustainable Development Report The table above is a non-exhaustive illustration that does not reflect weak dependencies. Potential impacts According to in-house studies conducted on the basis of raw materials life cycle assessments, confirmed by the use of Encore© and other external analytical tools and the findings of the first two steps in the Sciences-Based Targets for Nature (SBTN) method, the main potential impacts of the Group’s operations, illustrated in the table below, stem from: ● rubber-tree farming (land use); and ● manufacturing operations (climate change, water withdrawals and waste production). Upstream ...for regulation purposes • Climate • Water cycle • Erosion management • Diseases and pests • Extreme weather events • Energy from biomass • Groundwater and surface water • Groundwater • Pollination • Soil quality • Natural rubber and other raw materials • Surface water • Energy • Natural bioremediation • Bioregeneration ...that enable the production of natural raw materials ...for supply purposes ...that mitigate direct impacts Production of raw materials from biomass Storage, Transport, Usage, End-of-life Production facilities Value chain Ecosystem services...
