12 DSV Panalpina Corporate Responsibility Report 2020 Environment Science-based targets Scopes of emissions The SBTi framework uses the reporting standards established by the Greenhouse Gas Protocol which divides greenhouse gas emissions into scopes: We have chosen to work with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) to reduce our carbon footprint. The SBTi is an internationally recognised framework for climate change goals and a collaboration between the Carbon Disclosure project (CDP), the United Nations Global Compact, World Resources Institute (WRI) and the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF). Science-based targets provide a clearly defined pathway for companies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, consistent with the research-community’s latest understanding of climate change. Targets are considered ‘science-based’ if they support 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. Our 2030 sciencebased targets Scope 1 and 2 reduction of greenhouse gas emissions 40% Scope 3 reduction of greenhouse gas emissions 30% Scope 3 Indirect emissions (not included in scope 2) that occur in our value chain, including all our subcontracted transport. Scope 1 Direct emissions, typically from the burning of fuels, from owned or controlled sources, including our facilities and company vehicles. Scope 2 Indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heat or cooling.
