||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
302-5 | Reductions in energy requirements of products and services | Manage—Products; Measure—Products; Act—Products; 5,829,248 GJ Reductions in energy consumption of our products can be contributed to the addition of electric vehicles in China and increased production of electric vehicles versus internal combustion engine vehicles. Rationale for this calculation includes increased efficiencies of Chevrolet Bolt EV and Volt as compared to Chevrolet Cruze.

303-1 | Interactions with water as a shared resource | A combination of municipal, wells, rainwater, surface and reuse are sources of GM’s water use. Water is critical to automobile production and for building occupants for drinking water and hygiene. Local facility knowledge provides information on water supply impacts for current operations, and we engage in the use of WRI Aqueduct for future forecasting. Risks in current operations are mitigated with either alternate supply or water reuse working with local utilities. GM engages with over 300 suppliers through CDP Water Supply Chain and other organizations like AIAG. Company goals were set to continuously improve and reduce intensity from 2010 to 2020 by 15 percent. Water is integrated into our business plan, and each facility has a target for year-over-year improvement. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
303-2 | Management of water discharge-related impacts | General Motors maintains an environmental performance criteria document on water pollution control (EPC-003). Within this document minimum concentration-based performance requirements are defined for wastewater discharge to surface water and for wastewater discharges to external wastewater systems. Where local permit limits are more stringent, those supersede the GM requirements. Where no permit limit is provided, the performance requirements are used. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
303-3 | Water withdrawal |
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
303-4 | Water discharge |
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
303-5 | Water consumption |
Total water consumption from all areas: 10,738 megaliters. Total water consumption from all areas with water stress: 1,104 megaliters GM calculates water consumption based on water withdrawal times and engineering calculation for evaporation of 30 percent. Using the formula withdrawal minus discharge provides negative consumption due to groundwater infiltration at plant site. GM experiences water stress at two sites in Mexico and has mitigated the risk by recycling and reusing wastewater in the manufacturing process |

||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
305-4 | GHG emissions intensity |
0.67 metric tons CO2e/vehicle Calculated on the basis of 8,459,236 production vehicles; includes Scope 1 and 2 emissions and all GHG gases. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
305-5 | Reduction of GHG emissions |
357,033 metric tons CO2 Calculated using GHG Protocol on the basis of year-over-year reduction in 2018 from 2017; and includes all GHG gases in Scope 1 and 2 emissions. We use internal project tracking tools to obtain this data. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
305-6 | Emissions of ozone-depleting substances (ODS) |
0.936 metric tons Calculation includes R-123, R-500, R-22, R-113, R141B, R-502, R-409A. Figures represent actual emissions; if actual emission data was not available, an emission factor of 8.5 percent of the total equipment charge by refrigerant was used to estimate emissions. The 8.5 percent rate is based on the median range of leakage rates estimates provided by the IPCC Good Practice Guidelines and Uncertainty Management in National Greenhouse Gas Inventories (2000). |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
305-7 | Nitrogen oxides (NOX), sulfur oxides (SOX) and other significant air emissions |
VOC emissions are composed of the following emission units: ELPO, Primer, Topcoat, Final Repair
