Science Based Targets initiativet

The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) establishes recognized criteria for companies’ greenhouse gas emission reduction targets. Companies can have their climate targets assessed and validated against the SBTi’s criteria.
What does SBTI mean to you?

Science Based Targets initiativet

(SBTi) has become the highest standard for companies that set themselves ambitions and binding targets for reductions in their emissions of greenhouse gases. SBTi is a collaboration between CDP, the UN’s Global Comapct, the World Resources Institute and the World Wide Fund for Nature, WWF, which defines and disseminates best practice in relation to reductions of greenhouse gases with a background in climate research. The goals are to limit global warming to well below 2 degrees above pre-industrial levels and to continue to the efforts to limit global warming to 1,5 degrees.

HORNs SBTi goals

In setting our reduction targets, we have aligned ourselves with the climate science goal of limiting global temperature rise to 1.5 °C. According to the SBTi, as an SME, HORN must reduce our baseline emissions by 42% by 2030 to help limit global warming—we are working to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions leading up to 2030. These efforts follow a concrete action plan with defined reduction targets and ongoing monitoring. You can read more about our CO2 reduction strategy and our ongoing progress in our annual reports:
