THE URGENT NEED FOR ACCELERATED CLIMATE ACTION

“It is unequivocal that human influence has warmed the atmosphere…Global warming of 1.5°C and 2°C will be exceeded during the 21st century unless deep reductions in CO2 and other greenhouse gas emissions occur in the coming decades.”

OUR NET-ZERO COMMITMENT ADDRESSES CLIMATE SCIENCE

CLP’s key targets and commitments:

• Achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across our value chain by 2050;

• Meet science-based targets for 2030 to align with the Paris Agreement goal of limiting global warming to well-below 2°C above pre-industrial levels. Our interim targets for 2040 have also been strengthened for the same ambition; and

• Phase out coal-based assets by 2040 —a decade earlier than pledged previously.

Furthermore, we will continue to pursue efforts to limit global warming to 1.5°C and further review our targets at least every five years.
