  Which method is used to calculate the GHG emissions arising from land use change?: "The following references of emission factors were used: FGV (2019), IPCC (2007), MCTIC (2016) and MMA (2014). The emissions of each greenhouse gas (GHG) were converted into tCO₂e by multiplying their respective Global Warming Potential (GWP – IPCC, 2007; FGV, 2019; WRI & WBCSD, 2017).The selection of the methodologies for quantification, data collection and use of emission factors was made based on the recommendations of the ABNT NBR ISO 14064-1 standard (ABNT, 2007). In addition, the following documents were used as a reference for preparing the company’s GHG inventory:The Greenhouse Gas Protocol: the Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard, WRI & WBCSD (2004);guides, guidelines and calculation tools of the Brazilian GHG Protocol Program (PBGHGP) of FGV (2020);2006 IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories, IPCC (2006);Calculation Tools for Estimating Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Pulp and Paper Mills, NCASI (2005)." http://centraldeindicadores.suzano.com.br/en/gri/305-1-en/#direct-scope-1-ghg-emissions-by-unit
  
  What is the total volume of GHG emissions arising from land use change?: 138,185.99 tons
  
  In 2019, "Suzano’s main direct emissions (scope 1) are related to the consumption of fossil fuels in the stationary equipment at the industrial units. However, other sources of significant emissions can also be seen in forestry units, from the consumption of fossil fuels by mobile sources in forestry and harvesting operations, as well as through the use of nitrogen fertilizers and soil remediation (liming)." Of the total annual emissions of 2,142,410.89 tons of CO2 equivalent, 138,185.99 tons were from forestry units. However, "Areas with planted forests and native vegetation contributed with direct removals of carbon from the atmosphere of 32.172 million tCO₂ equivalent. Thus, the balance between Suzano’s direct emissions and removals in 2019 was about 13.334 million tCO₂ equivalent removed. In addition, the areas with planted forests and native vegetation stored 278 million tCO₂ equivalent."

      [Translation] "Suzano's industrial environmental management system is certified under NBR ISO 14001: 2015. The forest management system, in turn, is attested by the forest management standards FSC® (Forest Stewardship Council®) ¹ and PEFC / CERFLOR (Brazilian Forest Certification Program), which include in their content several requirements related to environmental issues. Therefore, both in our industrial and forestry operations, we have our own specific environmental management systems for each reality. Each industrial unit has a member of the area responsible for managing the theme, while in the forest units, management is coordinated by teams that work specifically on environmental issues, guiding operational teams to act in accordance with established standards.In order to monitor the certifications related to these systems, internal and external audits are carried out annually. Internal audits are performed by auditors trained internally and designated for this purpose and / or by suitably qualified consultants. External audits, in turn, are carried out by internationally accredited certification bodies."
