Emission reductions at scale

Forward-looking businesses are accelerating the transition to an inclusive net-zero economy that leaves no-one behind.

Companies are encouraged to align their emission reductions and take bold climate action with one of the below initiatives:

SBTi – Commit to reduce greenhouse gas emissions

By setting 1.5ºC aligned, science-based emissions reduction targets, companies can future-proof growth by ensuring their plans for carbon reduction meet the level of ambition needed to limit the increase in global average temperature in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement.

The Climate Pledge – Commit to net zero by 2040

Co-founded by Amazon and Global Optimism, the Climate Pledge is a call to businesses and organizations to take collective action on the world’s greatest crisis and to work together to build a safe and healthy planet for the next generations.

SME Climate Hub – Commit to net zero by 2050

The SME Climate Hub is a pioneering global initiative that aims to create a tipping point for mainstreaming climate action and building business resilience by supporting millions of SMEs as they commit to halve greenhouse gas emissions before 2030, and race to net-zero emissions before 2050.
