Build a science-based near-term target with the Absolute Contraction Approach (ACA):
target = baseline × (1 − rate)years. Tests Scope 3 materiality,
validates the 1.5°C reduction floor, and projects a year-by-year trajectory.
| Year | Scope 1+2 (tCO₂e) | S1+2 cut | Scope 3 (tCO₂e) | S3 cut |
|---|
(1 − 0.042)10 = 0.651 — a cumulative
34.9% cut. Under SBTi Corporate Near-Term criteria a Scope 3 target is required when
Scope 3 is ≥ 40% of total baseline emissions, and must cover ≥ 67% of the screened
Scope 3 total.
