We are eager to present to you the new and - if we say it ourselves - exciting BACA calendar for 2023.

In November '22, COP27 brought together thousands of international representatives from various organizations, to discuss strategies for meeting the 1.5-degree global warming target. More than a handful of BACA members were among them to help accelerate corporate climate action. One month after closing on the final text, we thought it interesting to reach out and get a glimpse of the experiences our members had.

What exactly are Science Based Targets or climate goals? How do they work, and most importantly of all, how do you implement them within your organisation?

At times when the impact of climate change has never manifested itself more evidently and devastatingly, effective implementation of emission reduction measures deserves to be at the centre stage of the event. That is why in this vlog series, our vlogger Jaffar will share with you a grasp of inspiring ‘implementation stories’ from different BACA members.

Livestock accounts for about 15% of global anthropogenic emissions, good for half of total emissions from agriculture. This makes of the agricultural sector the second largest emitter of greenhouse gases; one in which cows occupy an important place. Time to do something about it, so they understood at Danone.

Our food system accounts for more than a quarter of global greenhouse gas emissions. What we eat has a huge impact on our ecological footprint. This means that there are many climate gains to be made. How can we capitalize on these? And what role can companies inside and outside the sector play?

This week, the World Meteorological Organization warned that we risk already reaching the average global temperature of 1.5° Celsius by 2027, which science believes is a major turning point at which climate effects will become increasingly damaging. The business community urgently needs to scale up its efforts to achieve a climate neutral world, says WWF, following the third progress report of the Science Based Target initiative.
