The trend of "science-based carbon reduction targets" is gaining momentum among apparel manufacturers.

2017-11-16

More than 300 apparel manufacturers recently pledged to participate in the fight against global warming through Science-Based Targets (SBTs). Under this agreement, these 300 companies must work closely with organizations such as the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), the World Resources Institute (WRI), and the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) to reduce carbon emissions, with a target of 2 degrees Celsius. What are SBTs? Simply put, companies must adhere to the stringent emission standards of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and submit concrete carbon reduction measures covering aspects such as water use, greenhouse gas emissions, and deforestation impact. The CDP will use this as one of the key criteria for evaluating companies' sustainability efforts. As the CDP's review process becomes increasingly stringent, companies that submit carbon reduction targets that align with IPCC reports will receive additional points in this rigorous scoring mechanism. The CDP hopes to encourage companies to unleash their creative potential in return. CDP provides numerous exposure opportunities to high-performing companies, including the 193 companies featured in CDP's 2016 Corporate Climate Action Report, demonstrating the effectiveness of marketing in building a strong reputation. With the advancement of the times, apparel companies have deeply felt the dual pressure from governments and consumers, recognizing their responsibility to protect the environment. The apparel industry also understands that this transformation helps companies survive sustainably in the future low-carbon era. Compared to other industries, the apparel industry, already high in carbon emissions and water consumption, requires a significant amount of water. According to the World Resources Institute, a single cotton T-shirt requires 270 liters of water, equivalent to an adult's drinking water consumption for 2.5 years. The apparel industry's commitment to emissions reduction is of great significance and effectiveness. World-renowned clothing brand Levi Strauss has pledged to reduce its carbon emissions by 25% by 2020, with renewable energy accounting for 20% of its energy mix. Nike has also committed to using 100% renewable energy by 2025. GAP will halve its carbon emissions by 2020. These are all efforts and changes made by this energy-intensive industry. Melissa Fifield, Executive Director of Sustainability at GAP, stated, "Corporates have an absolute influence on promoting a low-carbon economy. Setting specific, scientific goals allows GAP to contribute to protecting the planet." It is understood that some well-known companies, such as Amazon, Facebook, and Tesla Motors, have not yet responded to the CDP survey. Source: CSRone (2017-10-23)
