Focus dell’informativa
E2-4 reports amounts of material pollutant emissions to air, water and soil from own operations during the reporting period, including emissions caused by environmental accidents where applicable.
It also reports primary microplastics manufactured or used in products and the amounts directly released into the environment. Microplastics are part of E2-4 but not part of its official title.
Material pollutants are determined through managerial assessment that considers the undertaking's activities, sector, applicable E-PRTR and IEPR pollutants and other pollutants measured or monitored. A regulatory threshold is not automatically the reporting cut-off.

Come prepararla
Richiedi i dati
Request the disclosure evidence
Traduci l’informativa in una domanda di business interna, poi adattala al linguaggio della tua organizzazione.
Provide the pollutant inventory, managerial assessment, measured or calculated emission amounts by medium, accident records, microplastics data and GDR-M methodology evidence.
Use the organisation's own role and document names, but preserve the defined ESRS terms and the scope described above.

Nota metodologica
Use consistent mass units, document estimation methods and include relevant pollutants even where a regulatory reporting threshold is not exceeded.
Nota di contesto
Explain estimation uncertainty, scope limitations and applicable reliefs without converting internal thresholds into ESRS requirements.
