American Tower Adopts Science-based Targets
25 Ottobre 2021 - 2:00PM
Business Wire
American Tower Corporation (NYSE: AMT) today announced its
adoption of science-based targets (SBTs) across its global
operations and supply chain, which have been approved by the
Science Based Targets initiative and are in line with the goals set
forth in the 2015 Paris Agreement.
The establishment of SBTs reflects American Tower’s efforts to
advance its sustainability program and reduce greenhouse gas (GHG)
emissions to limit future global warming to well below two degrees
Celsius. The SBTs represent direct scope 1 and indirect scope 2 GHG
emissions reduction targets of at least 40 percent by 2035 against
a 2019 baseline, as well as targets to reduce indirect scope 3
supply chain emissions by at least 40 percent.
Tom Bartlett, American Tower’s Chief Executive Officer stated,
“Since setting goals to reduce our diesel consumption and related
scope 1 emissions in 2017, we have made targeted investments in
energy solutions that have enabled us to avoid using millions of
liters of diesel per year. Adopting SBTs, which expand our GHG
reduction goals beyond scope 1, is a critical step in our
sustainability journey and a reflection of our continued dedication
to addressing climate change.”
