Video: Demonstrating Climate Leadership with Science Based Target (SBT)
About this course
Since the Paris Agreement entered into force in 2016, many countries have started to establish their short-term and long-term greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction targets. To enhance credibility to your stakeholders by alignment with global agenda, setting Science Based Target (SBT) is crucial.
The Science Based Target initiative (SBTi) provides a clear path for companies to achieve emissions reduction in line with climate science, and it also enables companies seize the benefits and enhance their competitiveness in the transition towards a zero-carbon economy. Since its launch in 2015, more than 1,400 companies spanning 60 countries and 50 sectors have joined the SBTi.
This webinar is designed to facilitate companies from all sectors to gain a better understanding of the requirements, procedure and challenges of setting science-based targets.
