They also aim to reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 42% by 2030 from a 2020 base year. For the long-term, Proximus plans to maintain a minimum of 90% absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emission reductions by 2040 from a 2020 base year, and reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 90% within the same timeframe.
