Is corporate climate action stalling?

The picture is mixed. While many companies continue to set science-based targets and reduce emissions, turning ambition into action remains a hurdle. South Pole research among 600 senior US, UK, and EU executives highlights this gap: 90% run climate initiatives, but only 43% have a formally approved strategy underway. Unlocking real commercial value is often limited by operational barriers like governance silos, Scope 3 data complexity, technology shortages, and economic headwinds.

What you'll get out of this webinar:

  • Clarity on SBTi’s shift to execution: Learn how SBTi is shifting from validating targets to helping companies deliver measurable emission reductions through the practical framework of CNZS V2.
  • Real-world net-zero data: Gain insights into the current state of corporate climate action, exploring what leading companies are doing to deliver on targets while unlocking business value.
  • 5-year outlook for decarbonisation: Discover how upcoming SBTi mechanisms, such as non-emission KPIs, shared supply chain activity pools, and flexible energy rules, will help you navigate current market bottlenecks and prepare your business for the future.
