Fossil Group has set ambitious climate commitments, aiming for net-zero emissions across its value chain by 2040. The company has established near-term targets to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 85% by 2030, using 2021 as the baseline year. Additionally, it aims to cut absolute Scope 3 emissions by 45% within the same timeframe. Long-term goals include a 95% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions and a 90% reduction in Scope 3 emissions by 2040.
