據歐洲石油6月8日消息，全球工程和咨詢公司伍德今天宣布其承諾將制定一個科學目標，到2030年將溫室氣體排放范圍減少40%。這一絕對減排目標是以2019年數字為基準設定的。

該公司將正式向基于科學的目標倡議(SBTi)提交其目標，SBTi是一個全球認可的機構，支持雄心勃勃的企業氣候行動。隨著公司繼續采取行動減少碳足跡，伍德的目標將使公司的目標遠遠超過《巴黎協定》確定的2攝氏度目標。

伍德對這些目標的承諾確保了公司除了為客戶提供技術解決方案外，還對減少自身的環境足跡負責。這項工作包括風能、太陽能、碳捕獲和儲存、氫和廢物轉化為能源，以及幫助石油、天然氣和化學品客戶實現他們自己脫碳目標的解決方案。隨著城市的不斷發展，它還包括在建筑環境、設計、規劃和提供可持續的、低碳密集的基礎設施方面的工作。

為實現其對低碳未來的承諾，伍德將關注全球效率，包括降低其場地、設備和車輛使用的碳強度最低標準，提高可再生能源利用率，以及更可持續的采購政策。

Wood commits to 40% reduction in carbon emissions by 2030

Wood, the global engineering and consultancy company, today announces its pledge to set a science-based target to reduce its scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 40% by 2030. This absolute reduction target is set using 2019 figures as a baseline(1).

The company will formally submit its targets to the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi), a globally recognised body that champions ambitious corporate climate action. Wood’s target will put the company on a trajectory well beyond the 2-degree Celsius temperature goal identified by the Paris Agreement, as it continues to take action to reduce its carbon footprint.

Wood’s commitment to these targets ensures the company is accountable for minimising its own environmental footprint in addition to the technical solutions it provides to clients. This work covers wind, solar, carbon capture and storage, hydrogen and waste to energy, as well as solutions to help oil, gas and chemicals clients achieve their own decarbonisation targets. It also includes work in the built environment, designing, planning and delivering sustainable and less carbon intensive infrastructure, as cities continue to grow.

To achieve its commitment to a low carbon future, Wood will focus on global efficiencies including minimum standards to reduce carbon intensity from its sites, equipment and vehicle use, the increased utilisation of renewable energy sources and more sustainable procurement policies.
