The Science Based Targets Initiative was created in 2014 to align companies’ GHG goals with the global carbon budget. Since then, it has seen an incredible number of commitments from companies worldwide, with 350 companies currently taking action. With the growing attention and commitments in this exploratory area, what results are being seen? Can companies bring together economics, expert stakeholders and science based targets to drive strategy and improve performance?
This session will look specifically at some of those companies making commitments. We’ll assess the successes and outcomes they have seen so far, and how they have integrated science based targets into corporate strategy. We will also ask the advice of an investor on what they expect to see from companies in this area.
