的 last 12 months have seen a significant increase in corporate net zero commitments. 根据国际研究倡议 净零跟踪器, one in three of the largest public companies in G20 countries now has a net zero target, 高于去年的五分之一. This is to be welcomed: the science tells us we are already at a critical point in 2021 and it is time for everyone to increase our efforts to limit the impacts of the climate crisis on our planet. 的 Glasgow Climate Pact achieved at COP26 will be a crucial way through which action must be delivered.
As a science-based company, we are committed to a sustainability approach that follows the science. 澳门第一赌城在线娱乐相信行动和交付的必要性, 无论是短期的还是长期的, 改善公众和地球健康.
2021年10月，澳门第一赌城在线娱乐的净零目标得到了 科学减排倡议(SBTi)，以配合他们新的净零标准. This is the world’s first science-based certification of companies’ net zero targets in line with the Paris Agreement’s goal of keeping planetary warming to 1.比工业化前水平高5°C. We are proud to be among the first seven companies globally to have our targets verified, 并鼓励其他人采用这种方法.
在COP26, 澳门第一赌城在线娱乐的主席, Leif Johansson, discussed the importance of science-based targets alongside global leaders including the UN Secretary General António Guterres, 联合国全球契约执行主任Sanda Ojiambo, as well as senior leaders from Greenpeace 和 SBTi at the UN Global Compact Caring for Climate high-level meeting.
Having our climate targets verified by the 科学 Based Targets initiative, 独立和受人尊敬的团体, 是澳门第一赌城在线娱乐走向零净值的重要组成部分吗. 的 best way to drive progress is with a structured and clear roadmap that the SBTi provides… And we’re starting to see a great shift across industry, 不仅承诺未来几十年, 但是在接下来的一年中衡量澳门第一赌城在线娱乐工作的效果, 两到三年.
We are already delivering meaningful action to cut our global carbon footprint. Between 2015 and 2020, we reduced our Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 60%. In 2020, more than 99% of our purchased electricity came from renewable sources. We’re also putting nature-based solutions at the heart of our strategy: through our AZ森林计划, we’re planting over 50 million trees by 2025 and ensuring their longer-term survival.
澳门第一赌城在线娱乐在可持续发展方面的领导地位已得到广泛认可. We have been CDP AA rated for Climate and Water for six years in succession, and ranked amongst the top 100 most sustainable corporations in the world by Corporate Knights for five years in a row. 道琼斯可持续发展指数, 最长久的, 全球可持续发展基准体系, has highlighted our position as one of the most sustainable pharmaceutical companies, 基于对我国经济的深入分析, 社会及环境表现. This is in addition to previous recognition of our progress, including by 彭博 和 气候领袖 清单.
的 continued contribution of AstraZeneca employees enables us to deliver on our 可持续性 ambition and targets. I’m proud of where we are today and know that we’ll continue to raise the bar even higher in the future.
A systems-level approach is needed to deliver better healthcare and outcomes with a lower environmental footprint. We recognise that working in partnership is critical to achieving this, which is why we are a founding member of both HRH 的 Prince of Wales 可持续市场倡议, where Pascal Soriot our Chief Executive Officer is championing the newly launched 卫生系统工作组，以及 《澳门在线赌城娱乐》力争零排放 运动. 这一承诺由世界卫生组织牵头的50个国家做出 COP26卫生方案 to develop ‘climate smart’ healthcare is another strong example of the power of collaboration. 该方案强调了保健复原力的重要性, 澳门第一赌城在线娱乐在哪里已经率先建立了 卫生系统可持续性和复原力伙伴关系 with the World Economic Forum and London School of Economics, now active in over 20 countries.
Another example of collaboration is the first-of-its-kind partnership we announced at COP26 together with industry peers and Schneider Electric to help our suppliers access renewable energy. 的 激励 programme will support the decarbonisation of healthcare across the industry by harnessing our collective buying power to help suppliers switch to renewable energy.
减少全球排放不是任何人都能单独完成的事情. 澳门第一赌城在线娱乐知道，澳门第一赌城在线娱乐现在需要共同努力，寻求切实可行的解决办法, and this is why AstraZeneca joined this unique collaboration of ten of the largest pharmaceutical companies to encourage and support our suppliers to access more renewable energy. This mechanism will reduce greenhouse emissions within the supply chain and, 澳门第一赌城在线娱乐希望, 可能会激励其他人采取类似的做法.
Through our science-driven sustainability strategy and delivery, we are walking the talk. 通过将可持续发展融入澳门第一赌城在线娱乐所做的一切, 从实验室到病人, we are helping to ensure we can continue to deliver life-changing medicines to people around the world, 以及提高生态和社区的恢复能力.
