JBS and X among 284 companies that failed to meet science-based target-setting commitment
Scope 3 challenges, lack of sector-specific standards and fear of not being able to meet targets top the reasons for missing deadline.
The Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) has published the names of 284 companies that have failed to submit a 1.5ºC-aligned climate target within their two-year deadline. X (formerly Twitter), JBS and International Airlines Group (IAG) are all included in the list.
The data was unveiled by the SBTi as part of its final report on the Business Ambition for 1.5ºC campaign, which ran between June 2019 and October 2021, and was joined by more than 1,000 companies collectively worth US$23 trillion.
