limit to temperature increase to avoid catastrophic effects of climate change (IPCC)
reduction in our CO2e emissions per tonne of production since 20111
of our emissions are from natural gas, with few alternatives presently available at scale
Context
Decarbonising the economy presents businesses and policymakers with a range of challenges and opportunities, not least for energy-intensive industries such as paper and pulp. Reducing carbon emissions substantially will require a combination of technological development, resource efficiency, renewables deployment and policy change, contingent on break-through technologies in order to mitigate the worse effects of climate change.
Contribution to the UN SDGs Driving carbon reduction strengthens capacity on climate change mitigation, adaptation and impact reduction.
