Moreover, our climate reduction initiatives as described on these pages, are anchored within our existing business model and financial planning. This is further supported by the fact that we do not currently have material climate-related financial risks (see page 29), and the fact that GN is not excluded from the Paris-aligned benchmarks.

- Has the undertaking established GHG emission reduction targets that are science-based and aligned with the objective of limiting global warming to 1.5°C? Specify the framework and methodology utilized to determine these targets, including whether they follow a sectoral decarbonisation pathway. Detail the underlying climate and policy scenarios, and confirm if the targets have undergone external assurance. Additionally, provide a concise explanation of how future developments, such as changes in sales volumes, shifts in customer preferences and demand, regulatory factors, and new technologies, have been considered in setting these targets and their potential impact on both GHG emissions and emissions reductions.

Question Id: E1-4_22
GN has set Board-approved science-based GHG emission reduction targets to manage our climate-related impact and risks by decarbonizing in line with the scientific consensus on the urgency of addressing climate change and the degradation of nature. We are committed to reduce absolute GHG emissions (metric tons CO2eq) in Scope 1 and 2 by 80% and in Scope 3 by 25% by 2030 from a 2021 baseline. GN is also committed to reaching net-zero GHG emissions by 2050 at the latest, meaning 90% reduction with neutralization of unabated emissions to reach net zero. These targets cover all GHGs stipulated in the GHG Protocol and all activities in GN’s own operations and value chain globally. Our near-term targets have been set using the Science Based Targets initiative’s (SBTi) Criteria v5.0 with the absolute contraction approach and the cross-sector pathway, which is based on the P1 scenario in the IPCC Special Report on Global Warming of 1.5°C. It has been assumed that GN’s core business activities will not change by 2030. We have aligned our net-zero target to the SBTi’s cross-sector absolute reduction method for long-term targets.
