                              We are committed to reduce our Greenhouse Gas Emissions by 15% by year
                              2020.
                 TARGET


                              We have identified year 2015 as baseline. GHG emissions are measured in
                              Kg of CO /Dozens of Socks and Kg of CO /Kg of Yarn.
