Approval by the Science Based Targets initiative of UCB’s CO2e target. UCB commits to reducing absolute scope 1, 2 and 3 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions we directly control by 38% by 2030 from a 2015 base year. 

We are committed to achieving carbon neutrality by 2030 for the operations we control directly. This will be achieved by decreasing our emissions and compensating for any we cannot reduce in the short-term. We are dedicating 80% of our efforts to reduce our GHG emissions and 20% to GHG compensation programs.

We set our goal to reduce our water withdrawal by 20% by 2030, compared with a 2015 benchmark.
