Each week, the Luxembourg Sustainability Forum will reveal one highlight of the program!

TIME FOR SCIENCE-BASED ACTION
It is getting warmer! User guide for companies

The most recent IPCC special report reminds the urgent imperative to stay within the 1,5°C maximum temperature. Companies must certainly take up their responsibilities and act. But at which level should they set their individual targets? Doing enough? The Science-Based Targets help quantify the effort and transition concretely towards a low-carbon model.

Join us and our international high-level panel to find out how companies have embarked on this initiative and taken concrete steps.

 
Two introductions:
  • Hans-Otto Pörtner, Working Group II Co-Chair, IPCC
    What science tells us today. Presentation of IPCC's latest conclusions and urgent need to act
  • Alexander Farsan, Global Head of Science-Based Target, WWF
