Elanders climate targets approved by the Science Based Targets initiative
Elanders climate targets have been validated and approved by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The climate targets are deemed to be aligned with the latest climate science and in line with the Paris Agreement's goals to limit global warming to a maximum of 1.5 degrees.
“Having our climate targets validated by the Science Based Targets initiative is a significant step in our long-term sustainability efforts. The SBTi validation provides us with a strong base for our continued work to reduce our climate impact and build a more sustainable business,” says Åsa Vilsson, CFO of Elanders Group.
“The validation of our climate targets by SBTi is a clear demonstration to our commitment to sustainability. We have worked extensively to ensure that our goals are both ambitious and scientifically justified. Now, the important work continues to achieve these targets – in close collaboration with our customers, suppliers, and other key stakeholders,” adds John Nyberg, Director of Sustainability at Elanders Group.
Elanders’ climate targets include:
- Reducing greenhouse gas emissions within Scope 1 and 2 by 50% by 2030, from the base year 2021.
- Reducing greenhouse gas emissions within Scope 3 by 25% by 2030, from the base year 2022.
