About the team

 

WorldClimate:

 

Deloitte has launched WorldClimate—our global strategy to address climate change by driving responsible climate choices within our organization and beyond. Deloitte’s near-term (2030) greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction goals have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) as 1.5°C-aligned, science-based targets. Deloitte has also committed to set long-term emissions reduction targets using the SBTi’s Net Zero Standard.

 

We will also connect with others, empowering our professionals and engaging our broader ecosystem to create solutions that facilitate the transition to a low carbon economy. We believe the future of our people, planet, and profession depends on the business community taking measurable, decisive action on climate change. This is what our stakeholders and our professionals expect of us, and it’s what we should expect of ourselves as responsible global citizens.

 

The opportunity to create a more sustainable world is at our collective fingertips. Our actions make a difference, no matter how large or small.

 

Our commitments:
