Science-based targets Currently, most company targets are not
aggressive enough to account for their share of
global GHG emissions reductions.
Science-based targets aim to keep the planet
within the widely-accepted global goal of a 2°C
temperature increase from pre-industrial levels.

Demonstrating climate leadership
Science-based targets allow companies to
reduce their fair share of emissions and set
their targets in line with climate science.
Companies can demonstrate to policy
makers the scale of ambition in industry and
positively influence international climate policy.

Demonstrating climate leadership Science-based goal setting can spur ambition and generate the innovations needed to
transition to a low-carbon, sustainable economy.
This type of innovation can redefine companies’ bottom lines by creating new business
models and sources of value, and by disrupting currently unsustainable economic systems.
Setting these targets in advance of carbon-related regulations will allow companies to be
better positioned to respond to regulatory and policy changes.
Companies can identify risks and take advantage of opportunities relating to climate
change.

Provide tools & guidance for
companies to set emission
reduction targets in line with
climate science.
Encourage businesses to adopt
emission reduction targets that are
consistent with a 2ºC threshold.

Company Intensity
Company targets are expected to converge or
compress with their sector by 2050.
Their intensity pathway is calculated based on:
• share of the activity
• base year intensity
Scopes 1 and 2 are covered, general guidance is
provided for scope 3.
Companies can set absolute or intensity targets.
Most emissions are covered by sectors in the SDA.

Compression of carbon intensities within a sector

Science-based targets at CDP
Through its Road to Paris campaign, CDP is asking that
companies set their emissions reductions goals in line with
a science-based target.

Changes to CDP Climate Change Questionnaire
CDP will incentivize companies to
implement science-based targets in 2016.
CDP will look at what changes need to
be made (if any) to track companies' CO2
targets and their progress.
