Our Recent Reports

Bayer (BAY) Climate Transition Analysis

A new analysis of German multinational pharmaceutical and biotechnology company Bayer finds that the company shows extremely modest plans to reduce its Scope 3 emissions, despite these accounting for over three quarters of its emissions. Although the company is committed to ambitious climate targets, including to become Net Zero by 2050 across its entire value chain, there is no roadmap for investors to show how it will achieve this.

Plastics – Executive Compensation

Nearly half of plastic companies have no link between executive pay and sustainability goals, despite nearly all being publicly committed to sustainability policies. Over half (54%) of companies do not set Science-based targets. With the top 25 independent shareholders holding a combined USD 1.1 trillion and the plastic industry facing one of the longest risk registers of any sector, investors should extend pay performance policies beyond purely financial metrics and include sustainability-linked elements.
