Reduce your greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in line with global climate requirements

Once you have measured your GHG emissions, you need to set reduction targets that are compatible with climate requirements and implement concrete actions to achieve them.

Science-Based Targets (SBT): the benchmark for defining ambitious GHG reductions

Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) was launched in June 2015 by the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), the United Nations Global Compact, the World Resource Institute (WRI) and the World Wildlife Fund (WWF). It is now the reference body for determining and deploying ambitious GHG emission reductions.

A reduction target is considered “science-based” if it is in line with what climate science considers necessary to achieve the Paris agreements and if it makes it possible to limit global warming to well below 2°C compared with pre-industrial levels.

Using the SBTi method, the aim is to determine a GHG emissions trajectory for organisations over several time horizons. This gives the level of reduction to be achieved by emissions scope (1, 2 and 3) or according to the 6 categories of the ISO 14 064 standard, in terms of both absolute emissions (kgCO₂e) and carbon intensity (kgCO₂e/m2, kgCO₂e/FTE).

This simulation work enables us to set an ambitious course and then implement appropriate measures to reduce emissions:

  • Reducing energy consumption (energy sobriety and efficiency)
  • Optimising people’s journeys through mobility plans
  • Implementing a low-carbon logistics policy
  • Implementing a low-carbon purchasing policy
  • Substitution of fossil fuels with renewable and recovered energies
  • Waste management as part of the circular economy (reduction, reuse, recycling, recovery)

A reference method for planning your carbon reduction strategy

Worldwide, more than 1,000 companies work with SBTi to set their targets and certify their approach.

The different stages of our support

  • Checking eligibility and the criteria to be met
  • Recommendation of the approach to choose (absolute, sectoral, physical intensity, economic intensity, etc.)
  • Calculation of the trajectory on the basis of the GHG assessments carried out and preparation for certification

The objectives of implementing a low-carbon strategy

  • Responding to the growing demands of your customers
  • Winning new markets
  • Improving your organisation’s non-financial performance
  • Facilitating reporting in conjunction with the CSRD

The benefits of implementing concrete reduction actions

  • Reduce your dependence on fossil fuels
  • Your suppliers’ commitment to reducing their GHG emissions
  • Involving your employees in a meaningful process
  • Reduce your risk exposure while increasing your competitiveness and attractiveness
