How to set reduction targets with scientific rigor

Strategy & ESG

An SBTi guide for companies, with CarbonBox and WWF: how to define science-based reduction targets.

Does your company know exactly how much it must cut its emissions to be aligned with the Paris Agreement? Together with Jonathan David Sánchez Rippe, climate change specialist at WWF Colombia, we break down the reference standard in corporate climate action: the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Moving from arbitrary goals to science-based targets is not only an ethical matter; it is a competitive necessity in international markets and with the financial sector.

The session contrasts SBTi with carbon neutrality, explains the validation routes for SMEs and large companies, demystifies Scope 3 and supplier management, reviews the financial and reputational incentives, and clarifies when removals are allowed after reaching the minimum mitigation threshold.
