Carlsberg is committed to ambitious climate action, with validated Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) targets. The company aims for net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its entire value chain by 2040, based on a 2022 baseline.

Additionally, Carlsberg commits to a 30.0% absolute reduction in Scope 3 GHG emissions from specific categories (purchased goods and services, fuel- and energy-related activities, upstream and downstream transportation and distribution, waste generated in operations, use of sold products, and end-of-life treatment of sold products) by 2032. For Scope 3 Forest, Land and Agriculture (FLAG) GHG emissions, Carlsberg aims for a 36.4% absolute reduction by 2032, with a further commitment to a 72.0% reduction by 2040 from the same 2022 baseline. The company also aims for zero carbon emissions at its breweries by 2030 and no deforestation across its primary deforestation-linked commodities by December 31, 2025.
