Track the world’s climate commitments

Explore which companies have set science-based emissions reduction targets, compare sector performance, and understand the SBTi framework that holds business accountable to the Paris Agreement.

The global state of science-based targets

Every figure below comes from the SBTi’s public target dashboard: companies that have committed, targets that have been validated, and how far Scope 3 accountability reaches.

Scope 3

Supply chain emissions measurement and reduction across the full electronics lifecycle.

Biodiversity

Mining impact and ecosystem accountability — from rare earth extraction to habitat loss.

Pollution

eWaste, hazardous materials and the circular economy — keeping electronics out of landfills.

“Targets without science are just promises. Science without targets is just data.”

SBT adoption by sector

Adoption rate is the share of assessed companies in each sector with a commitment or validated target.

How SBTi works

Six stages, from a signed commitment letter to annual public reporting. Validation is against SBTi criteria v5.1 and typically takes four to six months.

01 · Commit
Submit a commitment letter to SBTi, signed by the CEO. The company then has 24 months to develop targets.
02 · Develop
Set emissions reduction targets aligned with climate science, using SBTi tools and sector guidance. Define Scope 1, 2 and 3 boundaries.
03 · Submit
Submit targets for official validation with methodology, base year, target year, and boundary documentation.
04 · Validate
SBTi reviews against its criteria and scientific models. Average validation takes 4–6 months.
05 · Disclose
Announce validated targets publicly. Published on the SBTi dashboard and added to the public companies list.
06 · Report
Track and report progress annually through CDP. Targets must be revalidated every five years.

Understanding Scope 1, 2 & 3

The GHG Protocol splits a company’s emissions into three scopes. Coverage figures are the share of validated SBTi targets that include each scope.

Scope 1 — direct emissionsincluded in 95% of targets
Emissions from sources the company owns or controls directly. The easiest to measure and the first targets most companies set.
On-site fuel combustionCompany-owned vehicle fleetFugitive refrigerant emissionsManufacturing process emissions
Scope 2 — indirect energyincluded in 93% of targets
Emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling. Addressed through renewable energy procurement — in electronics, the factory electricity behind chip fabrication.
Purchased electricityDistrict heating and coolingPurchased steamData center power
Scope 3 — value chainincluded in 61% of targets
All other indirect emissions across the entire value chain — typically 70–90% of a company’s total footprint. The hardest to measure and the most impactful to address.
Purchased goods and servicesTransport and distributionUse of sold productsEnd-of-life treatment (eWaste)

What is the Science Based Targets initiative?

The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) is a partnership between CDP, the United Nations Global Compact, World Resources Institute (WRI), and the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF). It defines and promotes best practice in science-based target setting, offering resources and guidance to reduce barriers to adoption.

Targets are “science-based” when they are in line with what the latest climate science deems necessary to meet the goals of the Paris Agreement — limiting global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels. SBTi Tools by MobiCycle Tech makes this data explorable: every validated target, every committed company, every sector’s progress. Visit the official SBTi website.
