When are Targets considered Science Based?
Targets are considered ‘science-based’ if they are in line with what the latest climate science deems necessary to meet the goals of the Paris Agreement – limiting global warming to well-below 2 degrees Celsius preferably to 1.5 degrees Celsius. By meeting these standards and signing the SBTi commitment letter your company will get recognized as “Committed” on the Science Based Target website, as well as the CDP, UN Global Compact and We Mean Business websites. You can also read more about SBTi at sciencebasedtargets.org
