Do you know how to set a science-based target? Our factsheet on the 5 steps to setting and meeting a science-based target will show you how to align your carbon reduction targets with the rate of decarbonisation required by science to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees. Learn how to assess the feasibility of your target, the recommended approaches and the stages of calculating an SBT.

As the worldwide focus on net-zero intensifies, it will be increasingly important to have the fundamentals right – data, energy management, reporting – if we are going to cope with the growing demands for accountability and succeed in our urgent climate ambitions.

This Energy Management Factsheet includes:

• • • An energy management checklist
    • A six-step guide to improving your energy management programme
    • How Harvey Nichols saved energy and costs through energy management

The financial risks of climate change are coming into sharper focus as regulators set out expectations for stress testing, climate risk management and transition planning. This introductory factsheet looks the sustainable finance opportunity, net-zero for the finance industry and EcoAct’s services for financial institutions

Traditionally, climate disclosure focused on the question “What is the impact of your organisation on climate change?”. The TCFD flips this question on its head, to ask “What will be the impact of climate change on your organisation?”.

Now, more than ever before, we must consider this question and understand the implications of climate change to make sure we are taking adequate action: investors are demanding it, governments are making it mandatory and climate science is telling us it is increasingly urgent.

In our TCFD eBook we demonstrate how to improve business disclosures, strengthen climate and sustainability strategy, and future-proof business through one exercise: TCFD alignment.

• What are the TCFD recommendations?
• Who are they intended for?
• What are the risks and opportunities of climate change?
• What is climate scenario analysis (CSA)?
• How can the TCFD accelerate your organisation’s transition to net-zero and provide it with an important edge in the fight for capital?

In this UK version of our annual international research we analyse the climate progress of some of the world’s largest public companies and assess FTSE 100 companies for the 12th year running.
