阿克苏诺贝尔设定减碳目标以帮助应对气候变化

阿克苏诺贝尔近日宣布了围绕公司整个价值链制定的减碳目标，同时成为首家通过制定此类目标来推进公司科学规划可持续发展总目标的油漆和涂料公司。

阿克苏诺贝尔设立的可持续发展总目标与巴黎协定一致，希望能尽可能限制全球变暖并确保全球气温上升对比工业化前水平不超过1.5摄氏度。

此次阿克苏诺贝尔给自己设立的减碳目标是到2030年（对比2020年）围绕整个价值链相关的碳排放量减少42%中国机械网okmao.com。这一目标将适用于整个公司自身的运营，以及包括客户和供应商在内的合作伙伴。该目标已经得到科学碳目标倡议（SBTi）的正式确认， 将有助于进一步强化和加速阿克苏诺贝尔于2019年提出的围绕“人类、地球、涂料”发布的可持续发展的新理念。

“设定这样的目标至关重要，”阿克苏诺贝尔首席执行官Thierry Vanlancker说。“我们给出了一个明确的方向，并计划在全球范围内动员公司的每一个人采取更有力的行动来应对气候变化。我们需要迅速采取行动，并注重协同合作和创新。关键时刻，有部分人会选择为零碳的未来出一份力而另一部分会选择置身事外。我们决心尽我们所能，以身作则来引导行业更可持续地发展。”

阿克苏诺贝尔目前已在“人类、地球、涂料”相关目标上取得长足进展。在和环境息息相关的领域，公司也在逐步接近目标并不断向前迈进——到2030年将其自身的碳排放量减半并在公司的运营中使用100%的可再生电力。为了更有效地向这一方向发力，阿克苏诺贝尔最近宣布到2022年在欧洲实现完全使用可再生电力。

“为了实现公司制定的减碳目标，我们的关注点不能仅限于公司的业务，”Vanlancker认为。“所以我们号召和我们价值链相关的所有合作伙伴携手逐步向低碳/零碳替代品转型。同时，也鼓励同行的伙伴们共同遵循SBTi的标准，通过制定各自的减碳目标，与阿克苏诺贝尔一道在行业中起到带头作用。”

阿克苏诺贝尔坚信协同合作才是将应对气候变化的环保目标大面积付诸于行动的关键。首席执行官Thierry Vanlancker目前已成为欧洲首席执行官联盟 (European CEO Alliance) 的成员，这一跨行业合作伙伴关系旨在帮助应对气候变化、建立经济弹性和成功达成欧盟绿色协议。该联盟汇集了来自能源、运输和技术行业的12位高管。

AkzoNobel sets pioneering carbon reduction target to help tackle climate change

AkzoNobel has become the first paints and coatings company to follow up on its commitment to setting science-based sustainability targets by announcing carbon reduction targets for the full value chain.

The company has aligned its own sustainability ambitions with the Paris agreement, which aims to limit global warming and ensure that global temperature rise does not exceed 1.5?C above pre-industrial levels.

AkzoNobel’s target is to reduce carbon emissions for the whole value chain by 42% by 2030 (baseline 2020). This will apply to the company’s own operations, as well as its partners, such as customers and suppliers. Currently being officially validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), the target will further sharpen and accelerate the company’s vision for its own People. Planet. Paint. approach to sustainable business, which was launched in 2019.

“Setting a target like this really matters,” says AkzoNobel CEO, Thierry Vanlancker. “It’s a clear signal that we’re preparing to mobilize our teams globally and take stronger action to tackle climate change. We need to act fast and focus on collaboration and innovation. When push comes to shove, there are those who contribute towards a zero carbon future and those who don't. We’re determined to do all we can and set the example by being the frontrunner in our industry.”

AkzoNobel has already taken great strides forward with its People. Planet. Paint. approach and is forging ahead of target on two key environmental ambitions – halving its own carbon emissions and having 100% renewable electricity in the company’s operations by 2030. To highlight this strong progress, it was recently announced that AkzoNobel would operate only on renewable electricity in Europe by 2022.

“To achieve our carbon reduction target, we have to look further than our own operations,” continues Vanlancker. “So we’ll be encouraging all our value chain partners to transition to lower/zero carbon alternatives. I also encourage our peers to commit to the SBTi, announce their own targets and join us in setting the right example in our industry.”

AkzoNobel’s firm belief that collaboration is key to taking widespread climate action is further evidenced by CEO Thierry Vanlancker being a member of the European CEO Alliance – a cross-industry partnership designed to help fight climate change, build economic resilience and make a success of the EU Green Deal.
