The climate crisis is considered one of the most pressing risks to global health by the World Health Organization, causing 10 million deaths each year. The latest climate science from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change - described by the UN as 鈥渃ode red for humanity鈥� - shows it is still possible to limit global temperature rise to 1.5掳C, but we are dangerously close to that threshold.<br> <br> At 金禾娱乐城, we are inspired by patients and driven by science. On International Environment Day, we are proud to announce that we have publicly committed to set near- and long-term company-wide emission reductions in line with science-based net-zero through the Sciences Based Targets initiative (SBTi).<br> <br> We have started and will continue to deploy green-by-design for our solutions as well as our physical footprint. This includes initiatives such as green building certifications,鈥痳educing and controlling our business travel, accelerating efforts to reach 100% renewable energy through purchases or production,鈥痵hifting transportation from air to sea freight, and selecting suppliers with Science Based Targets. These are just some of the ways we are working to translate our pledge into reality and to preserve the environment, now and for the future.<br> &nbsp;</p> <article data-quickedit-entity-id="media/44861" class="align-left media media--type-image media--view-mode-default"> <div class="field field--name-image field--type-image field--label-hidden field__items"> <img loading="lazy" src="/sites/default/files/styles/ucb_header_image/public/2023-06/R-O_Typeset_Quotes_Square_Dusk-02_0.jpg.webp?itok=3MeSK5V5" width="400" height="400" typeof="foaf:Image"> </div> </article> <p>&nbsp;</p> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-newsroom-category field--type-entity-reference field--label-above field__items"> <a href="/taxonomy/term/1907" hreflang="en">about ucb</a> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-newsroom-tags field--type-entity-reference field--label-above field__items"> <a href="/taxonomy/term/10405" hreflang="en">International Environment Day</a> <a href="/taxonomy/term/10406" hreflang="en">Science Based Targets initiative</a> <a href="/taxonomy/term/10407" hreflang="en">Net Zero Commitment</a> <a href="/taxonomy/term/10408" hreflang="en">World Health Organization</a> <a href="/taxonomy/term/1571" hreflang="en">sustainability</a> </div> <div> <div class="comments-wrapper"> <div class="comment-area"> <h2 class="red">Leave a Comment</h2> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderForm" arguments="0=node&amp;1=14832&amp;2=field_newsroom_askexpert&amp;3=ask_expert" token="dPBYwZdsVaNvgAVghPG0aQFJktA3rBxuQB_TMWp1R20"></drupal-render-placeholder> <span class="toggle-form js-toggle-form"></span> </div> </div> </div> <span class="a2a_kit a2a_kit_size_16 addtoany_list" data-a2a-url="/about-ucb/magazine/detail/article/we-commit-to-accelerate-our-climate-target-toward-net-zero" data-a2a-title="We commit to accelerate our climate target toward Net Zero"><a class="a2a_dd addtoany_share" href="https://www.addtoany.com/share#url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ucb.com%2Fabout-ucb%2Fmagazine%2Fdetail%2Farticle%2Fwe-commit-to-accelerate-our-climate-target-toward-net-zero&amp;title=We%20commit%20to%20accelerate%20our%20climate%20target%20toward%20Net%20Zero"></a><a class="a2a_button a2a_button_facebook"><img src="/themes/custom/ucb_premier/images/a2a/facebook-icon.svg" width="16" height="16" border="0" alt="linkedin"></a><a class="a2a_button a2a_button_linkedin"><img src="/themes/custom/ucb_premier/images/a2a/linkedin-icon.svg" width="16" height="16" border="0" alt="linkedin"></a><a class="a2a_button a2a_button_twitter"><img src="/themes/custom/ucb_premier/images/a2a/twitter-icon.svg" width="16" height="16" border="0" alt="twitter"></a></span> <div class="field field--name-field-like field--type-likes-dislikes field--label-above field__items"> <div class="like_dislike"> <div class="like"> <a rel="nofollow" class="use-ajax" href="/like-dislike/like/eyJlbnRpdHlfdHlwZSI6Im5vZGUiLCJlbnRpdHlfaWQiOiIxNDgzMiIsImZpZWxkX25hbWUiOiJmaWVsZF9saWtlIiwibGlrZXMiOiI1MjUiLCJkaXNsaWtlcyI6Ii04NCJ9"></a> <span class="like-14832"> 525 Likes </span> </div> </div> <div id="like_dislike_status"></div> </div> Mon, 05 Jun 2023 11:50:30 +0000 Vanco Vlastimil (金禾娱乐城 S.A.) 14832 at
