Climate change deserves our full attention. There’s no denying global warming has become a reality that we have to deal with immediately. Any further temperature rise must be kept to an absolute minimum.

According to the report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change published in October 2021, to avoid catastrophic impacts from climate change, temperature rises need to be kept below 1.5°C. GHG emissions need to be halved by 2030 and drop to zero by 2050.

Proximus is fully committed to Science Based Targets initiative’s (SBTi) Business Ambition for 1.5°C and is in the process of having them validated in line with the SBTi’s new Corporate net-zero standard. By joining the European Green Digital Coalition, we also set ourselves the ambition of being net zero by 2040 across both our operations and our value chain. We also have the ambition of being a truly circular company by 2030.
