Haldor Topsoe commits to the Science Based Targets initiative and sets short-term targets to reduce carbon emissions

• 当爸爸rt of a plan to address climate change, Topsoe commits to setting ambitious carbon emission reduction targets in line with climate science.
• Topsoe will set long-term science-based targets to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions across its value chain.
• The company’s short-term target is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from its own production by 15% in 2021.

Topsoe加入基于科学的目标倡议（SBTI），以确认迫切需要减少碳排放的必要性以及化学行业负责全球产业碳排放的第八次的事实。这意味着该部门的公司在限制全球变暖方面具有至关重要的作用。Topsoe是在全球加入主动权的32家化工公司中，31家^stDanish company to commit.

“我们对基于科学的目标倡议的承诺与我们的愿景一起携手共进：将被认为是2024年的碳排放减排技术的全球领导者。我们支持客户削减其排放，我们决心削减排放我们自己的运营。短期内，与2019年，我们的目标是2021年底减少了15％。在明年及以后，我们将定义SBTI验证的长期减少目标，“Topsoe首席执行官Roeland Baan说。

The SBTi target-setting process involve three categories of emissions as defined by the Greenhouse Gas Protocol. Scope 1 and 2 are direct emissions where the company has operational control and indirect emissions from electricity consumption. Scope 3includes all other indirect emissions that occur in a company’s value chain, e.g. supply chain operations and end-product usage by customers.Topsoe will report on Scope 1 and 2 emissions in its upcoming Sustainability Report 2020.

Topsoe致力于为联合国可持续发展目标提供积极的贡献，并于2020年5月加入联合国全球契约，承诺将政策和行动与十大原则对齐。

About The Science Based Targets initiative
Worldwide, more than 1,000 companies are leading the zero-carbon transition by setting emissions reduction targets through SBTi, which is headed by civil society organizations CDP, UN Global Compact, World Resources Institute, and World Wildlife Fund (WWF).

The SBTi drives ambitious climate action in the private sector by enabling companies to set science-based emissions reduction targets.

Science-based targets provide a clearly-defined pathway for companies to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, helping prevent the worst impacts of climate change and future-proof business growth. Targets are considered ‘science-based’ if they are in line with what the latest climate science deems necessary to meet the goals of the Paris Agreement – limiting global warming to well-below 2°C above pre-industrial levels and pursuing efforts to limit warming to 1.5°C.
