Science-based targets
Science-based targets are environmentally friendly goals set by companies to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions in line with the latest climate science. They aim to help limit global temperature rise to safe levels, such as 1.5°C above pre-industrial times, by 2030 or 2050. These targets are typically developed using rigorous scientific data and climate models, ensuring that corporate efforts contribute meaningfully to addressing climate change. By adopting science-based targets, businesses demonstrate a commitment to sustainability and align their operations with global efforts to reduce carbon impact.
