The Science Based Targets initiative is a partnership between CDP, the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC), World Resources Institute (WRI), and the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) and one of the We Mean Business Coalition commitments. The initiative champions science-based target setting as a powerful way of boosting companies’ competitive advantage in the transition to the low-carbon economy. IPC was one of the 12 initial companies worldwide that committed to the initiative and had its efficiency target for letter and parcel items (-20% carbon emissions by 2025 based on the 2013 baseline year) approved by the Science Based Targets Initiative.
