ESG & Sustainability · Target & reduce
A target is only as good as the plan under it.
Two services: a target validated against what the science requires, and the costed, sequenced pathway that makes it something the business can actually fund.
In short
Target setting turns a measured baseline into a commitment, and the pathway turns that commitment into a funded plan. It covers science-based target setting and validation, and the sequenced decarbonization route that cuts emissions across operations and the value chain before neutralising the residual remainder.
The failure mode here is a target set for the announcement and a plan assembled afterwards. Validation tests the inventory beneath the target, not the ambition in it, and a pathway nobody has costed does not survive its first budget cycle. Reductions lead and removals finish — which is both the credible order and the financeable one.
