Our net zero climate pledge

LafargeHolcim is reinventing how the world builds for people and the planet.

On our way to becoming a net zero company, we are accelerating green construction by joining the net zero pledge with science-based targets.

Walking the talk on our commitment, we are:

• Setting ourselves ambitious 2030 climate targets that are validated by the Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi)
• Accelerating our reduction in CO₂ intensity to exceed 20% (compared to our 2018 baseline)
• Partnering with SBTi looking beyond 2030, to support the development of the first climate targets for a 1.5°C future in the cement sector

→ Science Based Targets initiative mobilizes companies to set science-based targets and boost their competitive advantage in the transition to the low-carbon economy. It is a collaboration between CDP, the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC), World Resources Institute (WRI), and the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) and one of the We Mean Business Coalition commitments.

→ Business Ambition for 1.5°C is an urgent call to action from a global coalition of UN agencies, business and industry leaders, calling on companies to set science-based targets in line with a 1.5°C future. The campaign is led by the Science Based Targets initiative in partnership with the UN Global Compact and the We Mean Business coalition.
