Our transformation

The challenge

At the heart of achieving net zero is the need to build trust. We are committed to leading by example and have made a worldwide science-based commitment to reach net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2030. Crucially, the commitment includes our supply chain and embedding ESG into our work with clients.

In July 2021, our targets were independently validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), which affirmed our approach and timeline. Importantly, our targets go beyond scopes 1 and 2 emissions to include our largest indirect scope 3 emissions. Additionally, PwC has committed to the United Nation’s Race To Zero campaign and Business Ambition for 1.5°C, which aims to build momentum around the shift to a decarbonised economy.

However, we recognize the importance of actively reducing the climate impact of our own operational footprint now. That is why, as we work towards net zero in 2030, to mitigate our impacts today we will continue to offset our emissions through high-quality carbon credits. From 2030 we will remove our remaining emissions to achieve net zero across our network.
