We never steered away from our sustainability goals. In Our 2020 Report we reported our performance and shared our progress against 2020 targets. We have set new SMART and ambitious goals towards 2030 and revised our mid- and long-term targets. In order to respond the challenges brought by COVID-19 during 2020, we strengthened our In Touch Technology framework to better respond to current developments.
We are committed to achieving net-zero emissions across our value chain by 2050. We will reduce our Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, and Scope 3 emissions to cover the entire value chain, including the consumer use of Arçelik products.
Our targets to reduce GHG emissions were approved by the Science Based Targets initiative
These are set in line with the Paris Agreement’s goal of limiting global temperature increase to "well-below 2°C" for Scope 1 and 2 emissions and position us among the 700+ companies worldwide. We have made a commitment to reduce our absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 30% and our absolute Scope 3 emissions from the use of our sold products by 15% by 2030 from a 2018 base year. To achieve our goals and retain our position as a leader, we will continue investing in energy efficiency, green electricity purchases and renewable energy systems.
Within the scope of our sustainability agenda, we focus on the future, the environment, and the needs of people and our business. We believe that we must go beyond our current habits and behavior models, the way we think now, and everything that is thought to be impossible today. We design, build and live the future, today. We design technologies that will improve the future.
