Event is finished:
Over 190 companies have already committed to a Science-Based Target, should you?

An increasing number of companies are setting ambitious carbon reduction targets, with many setting these targets in line with climate science. This is an important step in limiting the rise in global temperatures to 2 degrees. Could this approach help with University and College target setting?

Following on from our fully booked Science-Based Targets workshop last month, attended by BT, Vodafone, Aviva, PwC, The Crown Estate and many more, we will be holding another workshop on the 1st December.

We will be joined by Susie Wood, Senior Manager at Science-Based Targets Initiative who will share her wealth of knowledge about Science-Based Targets. Our experts, who have experience helping a wide range of international corporates set their Science-Based Targets, will also be on hand to answer your questions.

“The next step…is to ensure that greenhouse gas reduction targets are set at the rate consistent with the pace recommended by climate scientists to limit the worst impacts of climate change.”

Science-Based Targets Initiative

In our upcoming workshop we will discuss why target setting is important, and whether Science-Based Targets are right for your business or institution .
