SBTN framework now ‘sufficiently mature’ to guide corporate nature targets: WWF
The SBTN’s methodology for nature target-setting can support companies in complying with CSRD.
Companies should commit to setting ambitious and comprehensive nature targets by leveraging the methodology of the Science-Based Targets Network (SBTN) – a framework WWF considers “ready to guide their efforts”.
In a new report with recommendations to assess the credibility of corporate nature targets in the EU, the NGO analyses the SBTN’s alignment with obligations under the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) – and concludes that the initiative’s guidance “can greatly facilitate the implementation of nature targets and their related reporting requirements by CSRD”.
