A metric for spatially explicit contributions to science-based species targets

Nature Ecology & Evolution, 2021
© 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Limited. The Convention on Biological Diversity’s post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework will probably include a goal to stabilize and restore the status of species. Its delivery would be facilitated by making the actions required to halt and reverse species loss spatially explicit ...

Science-based policy: targeted nutrition for all ages and the role of bioactives [PDF]

European Journal of Nutrition, 2021
AbstractGlobally, there has been a marked increase in longevity, but it is also apparent that significant inequalities remain, especially the inequality related to insufficient ‘health’ to enjoy or at least survive those later years. The major causes include lack of access to proper nutrition and healthcare services, and often the basic information to ...

Science-Based Targets for Earth Systems : Framing Sustainability Problems and Solutions

, 2020
Interest in ‘science-based targets’ (SBTs) as a means of helping the private sector achieve greater environmental sustainability has sharply increased in recent years. However, the significant ambiguity around what SBTs for Earth systems are and how they relate to broader sustainability issues has received little attention.

Renewable energy certificates threaten the integrity of corporate science-based targets [PDF]

, 2022
Current greenhouse gas accounting standards allow companies to use renewable energy certificates (RECs) to report reductions in emissions from purchased electricity (scope 2) as progress towards meeting their science-based targets.

Does it pay to be science‐based green? The impact of science‐based emission‐reduction targets on corporate financial performance

Journal of Industrial Ecology, 2022
Abstract The number of companies with highly ambitious carbon emission targets is increasing rapidly. So‐called science‐based emission‐reduction targets (SBTs) are aligned with the aim of the Paris Climate Agreement to limit global warming to below 2°C and preferably to 1.5°C.

The Carbon Risk Real Estate Monitor—Developing a Framework for Science-based Decarbonizing and Reducing Stranding Risks within the Commercial Real Estate Sector

Journal of Sustainable Real Estate, 2019
Key obstacles to achieving the ambitious decarbonization targets determined in the Paris Agreement include the poor energy efficiency of the European commercial real estate sector and excessively low refurbishments rates due to uncertainty and a lack of ...

Comment on ‘From the Paris Agreement to corporate climate commitments: evaluation of seven methods for setting “science-based” emission targets’

Environmental Research Letters, 2022
A study from Bjørn et al (2021) suggests that methods to allocate emissions to companies proportionally to their economic growth are consistent with equity-related principles and are effective at conserving a global emissions budget while the science ...

Time for Science-Based National Targets for Environmental Sustainability: An Assessment of Existing Metrics and the ESGAP Framework

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2021
Despite the overwhelming scientific evidence on the ongoing degradation of the environment, there is a clear gap between the urgency of the environmental crisis and the policy measures put in place to tackle it.
