SCIENce based targets (SBTi) & Carbon Target Setting

Set credible, science-aligned targets that translate into real-world delivery.

Science-Based Targets (SBTi) provide independent validation that your emissions reduction targets align with climate science. But targets alone are not enough, they must be grounded in how your organisation actually operates and invests.

WHAT IS IT?

A structured approach to defining and validating carbon reduction targets, including:

  • Baseline development across Scope 1, 2 and relevant Scope 3 emissions

  • Target setting aligned with climate science and sector pathways

  • Alignment with SBTi requirements and submission criteria

  • Integration with net zero strategy and delivery plans

WHAT IT MEANS FOR YOU

  • Targets without a delivery plan often fail to translate into real impact

  • Poorly defined Scope 3 or unrealistic assumptions can undermine credibility

  • Increasing pressure from stakeholders and regulation to demonstrate robust, science-aligned commitments

HOW TRIBE HELP

  • Define credible, evidence-based carbon reduction targets

  • Align targets with estate strategy, capital planning and operational reality

  • Translate targets into deliverable pathways and investment plans

  • Support SBTi submission and validation where appropriate

  • Ensure alignment with wider net zero strategy and reporting frameworks

WHAT IT UNLOCKS

  • Credible, externally validated carbon targets

  • Stronger positioning with investors, stakeholders and partners

  • Clear link between ambition and delivery

  • Confidence that targets are achievable, not aspirational
