Furthermore, Certara commits that 89.66% of its suppliers by spend covering purchased goods and services, capital goods, and upstream transportation and distribution, will have science-based targets by 2030. Previously, the company aimed to reduce its Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions to near zero by the middle of this decade. Certara, Inc. has a "Targets Set" status for its near-term SBTi goals, classified as consistent with a 1.5°C warming scenario.
