As global efforts to combat climate change intensify, the SBTi framework enables companies to align their emission reduction targets with the latest climate science, aiming to limit global warming to well below 2°C, preferably to 1.5°C. By implementing science-based targets, organisations demonstrate a commitment to sustainability and responsible business practices.
The Science Based Target Initiative (SBTi) is a global body that enables companies to set ambitious greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets in line with climate science. By establishing a clear pathway to achieving these targets, the SBTi encourages businesses to take measurable steps toward reducing their carbon footprint. The SBTi sets out rigorous criteria for target-setting, ensuring that corporate commitments are both credible and impactful.
Key components of the SBTi include:
