Protecting our climate lies at the core of our sustainability ambitions. Against this backdrop, we have set out to become climate neutral by 2050. This will be possible by a broad focus on green energy and energy efficiency solutions. For this purpose, we are currently implementing a decarbonization pathway, with the highest priority being the reduction of our greenhouse gas emissions. We have also set ourselves the objective of reducing our Scope 1&2 emissions by 50% until 2029 compared to 2019. In order to achieve the goal of climate neutrality, further measures are being taken in the area of energy efficiency and the substitution of fossil fuels. Unavoidable emissions are to be captured using carbon capture methods, stored or reused. Only residual emissions are neutralized through offsetting in accordance with strict guidelines.
