Establishing a Clear Framework for Planning, Measurement, and Improvement

Establishing a Clear Framework for Planning, Measurement, and Improvement 

Scientists and other experts forecast dangerous climate conditions and humanitarian crises stemming from drought, rising sea levels, and extreme heat. The 2015 Paris Agreement commits countries to limit the global average temperature increase to well below 2°C above pre-industrial levels, and to aim for 1.5°C. Companies have a pivotal role in mitigating climate risk by setting targets and achieving them over the next two decades. Multiple target-setting methodologies exist but the most accepted approach is the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Though most companies around the world are setting targets voluntarily, the European Union has mandated targets via various regulations.
