Comments/Evidence
Meet 2.0 OR must meet 2.1 and 2.2 below:
2.1 Publicly demonstrate progress toward a 50% reduction for Scopes 1 and 2 by 2030 from a baseline no earlier than 2008, and
2.1 Publicly demonstrate progress toward a 50% reduction for Scopes 1 and 2 by 2030 from a baseline no earlier than 2008, and
Comments/Evidence
2.2 Publicly demonstrate that you measure at least 90% of your total value chain emissions, consistent with SBTi requirements for Scope 3 coverage, and that adequate annual progress is aligned with reducing those emissions by at least 20% by 2030. If the baseline year is 2025 this works out to about 5% per year in reductions. Baseline years may be set from 2015 to present.
