Earlier commitments include reducing operational (Scope 1 and 2) emissions by 46.2% from a 2018 baseline by the end of 2029 and a 13.5% reduction in upstream Scope 3 emissions within the same timeframe. The company also previously aimed for a 25% reduction in 2018 absolute Scope 1 and 2 emissions by the end of 2024.
