Climate Goals & Targets

Long-term Goals:
  • Net Zero by 2040
Medium-term Goals:
  • Reach peak emissions by or before FY25.
Short-term Goals:
  • Reduce absolute scopes 1 and 2 GHG emissions 50.4% by FY2032 from a FY2022 base year.
  • Ensure 95.3% of suppliers by emissions covering purchased goods and services will have science-based targets by FY2027.

Environmental Challenges
