The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), a collaboration between the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), United Nations Global Compact (UNGC), World Resources Institute (WRI), and World Wide Fund (WWF), guides companies in reducing their greenhouse gas emissions. It provides a clear pathway for future-proof growth by specifying how much and how quickly emissions must be cut to limit global warming to well below 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels.
