Our climate strategy is focused on addressing opportunities and risks that can arise from a low carbon world.
Four key themes guide our climate strategy
Supporting our clients’ transition
Encouraging consumer behaviour
Refining our operations
Sharing our progress
We continue to manage climate-related risks and opportunities. We’re working to transition our own business activities towards net-zero while supporting our clients to do the same.
Our role in the transition
We play an integral role in supporting the economic transition towards a low carbon future. We believe that success lies in aligning our efforts, mobilizing our clients by supporting their own strategies to achieve net-zero, and remaining accountable by reporting transparently on our progress.
Achieving net-zero emissions means reducing our greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions as close to zero as possible, while balancing any remaining GHG emissions by removing an equivalent amount of GHGs from the atmosphere.
We aim to achieve net-zero GHG emissions from our operational and financing activities by
2050.
Recognizing that achieving our ambition requires clear goals, immediate action and collaboration across all segments of the economy, we’re accelerating our climate action and making progress towards our net-zero objectives. With a 2050 ambition, there are several actions we will take in the immediate, short, interim and long-term to meet our goals.
