We have submitted our targets to the SBTi for revalidation (as we are rebasing our base year following a recent acquisition). Our targets are to reduce S1-S2 by 50% by 2030, reduce S3 by 46.2% over the same timeframe and reduce absolute S1,S2 and S3 by 90% by 2040. We want to minimise our impact on the environment across our own operations and our supply chain, but also use our data, capabilities and voice to influence the automotive industry to support others in the transition to a low carbon economy.
