The chemical and plastics industry is one of the biggest emitters of greenhouse gases. But we are also part of the solution with innovative products to foster a truly sustainable world and cope with global challenges.A journey of transformation towards sustainability for Covestro includes ambitious targets for initially reducing the emissions generated by our own production (scope 1) as well as emissions from purchased energy sources (scope 2) and becoming climate-neutral in these aspects by 2035. This year, Covestro has announced scope 3 climate neutrality targets by 2050, completing its climate strategy for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Climate neutrality can only succeed through close cooperation along the entire supply chain. Covestro’s scope 3 climate neutrality targets that make up around 80 percent of the company’s total greenhouse gas emissions are an important part of this and will be implemented alongside customers and suppliers.
