Givaudan has set robust, Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi) approved goals. The company aims to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its entire value chain by 2045. Near-term targets include reducing absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 70% by 2030 from a 2015 base year. For Scope 3 emissions, Givaudan is committed to reducing absolute emissions by 25% by 2030 from a 2020 base year. Additionally, they target a 30.3% reduction in Scope 3 FLAG GHG emissions by 2030 from a 2020 base year and a commitment to no deforestation across primary deforestation-linked commodities by December 31, 2025. Long-term targets include a 90% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 2045 (2015 baseline) and a 90% reduction in absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 2045 (2020 baseline). Givaudan also aims for its operations to be climate positive before 2040 and its supply chain to be climate positive before 2050.
