SBTs: Turning climate goals into measurable progress

Science-Based Targets provide companies with a recognised, science-backed pathway to reduce greenhouse gas emissions across their operations and value chain. The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) is the global standard. It requires at least a 90% reduction in emissions by 2050, allowing only 10% to be offset through removals or credits.

For businesses, the stakes are clear: regulators, investors, and partners increasingly demand credible climate strategies. Companies without science-based targets risk reputational damage, limited access to financing, and missed opportunities in key markets. Aligning with the SBTi ensures transparency, consistency, and measurable progress on climate goals.
