Science Based Targets (SBT)

The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) aims at promoting private companies’ climate action through emissions reduction targets grounded in science. SBTi is a partnership between the CDP (ex-Carbon Disclosure Project), the UN Global Compact, the World Resources Institute (WRI) and the World Wide Fund (WWF).

A Science Based Target is a GHG emissions reduction target based on climate science. To be more specific, this is in line with the decarbonisation efforts needed to keep the global temperature rise to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels.

  • Greater appreciation from customers, investors, and other stakeholders;
  • Strengthen ESG rating such as CDP scores;
