DECATHLON's sustainable development objectives
Overall Net-Zero Target: Decathlon commits to reach net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across the value chain by 2050.
Near-Term Targets: Decathlon commits to reduce absolute scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions 42% by 2030 from a 2021 base year. Decathlon also commits to reduce absolute scope 3 GHG emissions 42% within the same timeframe.
Long-Term Targets: Decathlon commits to reduce absolute scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions 90% by 2050 from a 2021 base year. Decathlon also commits to reduce absolute scope 3 GHG emissions 90% within the same timeframe.
Moving from our previous commitment to reduce our economic intensity (-53% CO2eq./€ in 2026 vs. 2016) to a reduction in absolute CO2 equivalent emissions is a major step forward in our climate strategy. Why talk about absolute CO2? Because reducing our carbon intensity does not necessarily mean that we are emitting less greenhouse gas, and so it seemed essential to make commitments in terms of absolute emission's reduction.
