In recognition of the significant threat posed by climate change to the economy, nature, and society at large, we at A³&Co.® have taken a decisive stance. We are dedicated to taking immediate action to mitigate our impact on the environment and contribute to a sustainable future.
Our goals are both ambitious and necessary. By 2030, we aim to halve our greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and ultimately achieve net-zero emissions by 2050. To ensure transparency and accountability, we have committed to yearly disclosure of our progress in this critical endeavor.
In addition to our internal efforts, we have also pledged our commitment to the "Race to Zero" campaign through our commitment to the SME Climate Hub. By joining forces with this global initiative, we are actively aligning our efforts with the Paris Agreement and contributing to the broader collective action necessary to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius.
As an initial step towards realizing these goals, we have undertaken comprehensive monitoring and reporting of our carbon and GHG emissions footprint. Following the established United Nations GHG Protocol, we have diligently identified our carbon footprint and established targets for emission reduction over the next 5-10 years, adhering to the GHG Protocol counting criteria.
We recognize that reducing our carbon footprint is not only morally imperative but also strategically essential. By actively embracing sustainability and participating in the Race to Zero, we are safeguarding our business, protecting the environment, and generating long-term value for all our stakeholders.
We eagerly anticipate sharing regular updates with our stakeholders, ensuring complete transparency, and fostering a collective effort towards a sustainable and prosperous future. Together, we can create positive change and contribute to a world that is resilient, low-carbon, and equitable.
