GEODIS’ climate commitments validated by the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi)

GEODIS has announced that the SBTi has approved its near-term science-based emission reduction target.

The SBTi approval acknowledges GEODIS’ commitment to addressing climate change and confirms that the Group’s strategy aligns with the 2015 Paris Agreement, seeking to limit global temperature rise to 1.5°C by the end of this century. 

• On scope 1 and 2, GEODIS has committed, from a 2022 base year to:
  • An absolute reduction of 42 percent greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) related to energy consumption by 2030. 

• On scope 3, GEODIS has 4 near-term targets within the same timeframe (2022-2030):

• • An absolute reduction of GHG emissions from fuel and energy related activities not included in scope 1 and 2 of 25 percent.
  • An intensity reduction objective of 25% GHG emissions per tkm from subcontracted container shipping, road, and rail operations, covering upstream transportation and distribution.
  • A further absolute reduction of scope 3 GHG emissions from upstrea…
