Join the Race to Zero through the SBTi Business Ambition for 1.5°C Campaign This SBTi webinar for COP26 preparation provides a detailed overview of the importance of setting ambitious science-based targets (SBTs). The session covers the SBTi Business Ambition for 1.5°C Campaign commitment model for net-zero targets and 1.5°C aligned SBTs, key SBTi criteria, and…
Ein Produkt als klimaneutral bezeichnen zu können, erfordert von Unternehmen die Einhaltung von festgelegten Schritten: der Berechnung von CO2-Emissionen, der Vermeidung und Reduktion dieser Emissionen und letztlich den Ausgleich von nicht vermeidbaren Emissionen über zertifizierte Kompensations- bzw. Klimaschutzprojekte. Vor allem die Schritte der Reduktion und Vermeidung von Emissionen sind essentiell. Was heißt Klimaneutralität? Klimaneutralität bedeutet,…
On August 24th 2021, the SBTi hosted a webinar to explain the changes to the SBTi criteria and implications for SBTi companies. Watch the following video to get a full understanding and overview of the SBTi ambition update for Europe: Various approaches for the calculation of science-based targets are available (contraction, compression, convergence). They all…
The debate on an ambitious climate target (Science-Based Targets) has increased among internationally active companies since the UN climate summit in Paris (COP21). The Paris Agreement marks a turning point for climate policy. Companies have a key role to play in achieving the COP21 goals. They have the opportunity to make an appropriate contribution to…
Achieving climate neutrality is becoming increasingly important for companies and is becoming part of their corporate objectives as part of their climate strategy. The aim is to continuously reduce CO2 emissions throughout the company and its value chain. Since a complete avoidance of CO2 emissions is difficult to achieve, companies invest in climate protection projects…
In addition to yesterdays blogpost on „How to correctly calculate a company´s indirect Scope 3 emissions“ the following video by SBTi covers scope 3 emissions abatement targets in the context of the SBTi Net-Zero Standard Criteria, including the background of scope 3 emissions abetment targets and the questions provided in the SBTi Net-Zero Standard Criteria…
In September 2020, the Science Based Targets (SBT) Initiative published the first scenarios with which companies can even develop into a “net zero” and in the best case scenario into a “climate positive”. CO2 compensation / neutralisation is a proven aspect of these approaches. This SBTi video reviews neutralisation as it relates to the SBTi…

This video covers guiding principles relating to emissions abatement criteria; overviews the emissions abatement target-setting method and criteria as they relate to interim and net-zero science-based targets; and reviews the questions that are available for the SBTi Net-Zero Standard Criteria public consultation. Various approaches for the calculation of science-based targets are available (contraction, compression, convergence).…
We’ve all heard of it: the aim of becoming „net-zero“. Companies around the world are setting net-zero targets, yet there currently isn’t a global standard to distinguish what truly constitutes a science-based net-zero target. Now, in the lead-up to COP 26, the SBTi is hard at work developing the first-ever global standard for net-zero criteria.…
