Specifically, RS Group plc commits to reducing absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions by 75% by FY2030 from a FY2020 base year. For Scope 3 emissions, the company targets a 25% reduction in upstream transportation and distribution emissions per tonne of sold products within the same timeframe, and a 20% reduction in use of sold products emissions per tonne of sold products. Furthermore, RS Group plc aims for 67% of its suppliers by spend, covering purchased goods and services, to have science-based targets by FY2025.
