Balance: the balance between anthropogenic emissions and carbon dioxide removals over some time. To calculate Suzano's balance, we considered Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions, and the balance between direct emissions and removals from land use.

Additional information
The balance sheet considers Suzano's emissions and removals. Explanations of the variations in each of the balance sheet items are described in the respective indicators "Direct GHG emissions (Scope 1)", "Indirect GHG emissions (Scope 2)", "Other indirect GHG emissions (Scope 3)" and "Carbon removals".
Both emissions and removals in 2021 were verified by a third party.
