Naspers has set several climate commitments. The company aims for a 30% reduction in corporate air travel emissions (Scope 3 downstream) by 2030, using 2020 as the base year. Naspers is also targeting a 100% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by FY28, from a FY20 base year, in line with a net-zero climate scenario. This includes a goal to reduce and retain corporate Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions at zero by FY28. Additionally, iFood, a related entity, has a goal of 50% of deliveries being non-polluting by 2025 for both Scope 1 and Scope 2. Naspers is a signatory to The Climate Pledge and has set near-term Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) targets classified as 1.5°C, covering 70% of its total investment and lending by invested capital as of FY2020. These targets address Scope 1 and 2 emissions and are consistent with reductions required to limit global warming to 1.5°C.
