SCA’s objective is to make the entire value chain fossil-free. One interim target is to reduce fossil emissions in the value chain by 50% between 2019 and 2030, which is in line with the Paris agreement’s 1.5°C target. Through systematic work with efficiency enhancements and a transition to biofuels, emissions from SCA’s industries have halved since 2010 and industrial processes are currently 96% fossil-free. Emissions of greenhouse gases across the value chain fell during the year by 5% and amounted to 0.72 (0.86) million tonnes of CO2 equivalents.
