Dyno Nobel is expected to be on track for a 1.5°C pathway by 2030. Following the divestment of its fertilisers business and repositioning as a pure-play industrial explosives company, Dyno Nobel reduced its reported emissions footprint by 66%, from 10.9 MTCO2e to 3.5 MTCO2e, materially improving the feasibility of its transition. By FY2025, the company delivered a 39% like-for-like reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions versus its divestment-adjusted 2020 baseline, delivering its original 2030 target several years early.

A new report by the Changing Markets Foundation and Planet Tracker finds 80% of investors assessed scored less than 10% of available points on methane – with a particular gap in addressing agricultural methane emissions persisting.

Methane is responsible for roughly 0.5°C of current global warming and is over 80 times more potent than CO₂ over 20 years. With a short atmospheric lifetime, cutting methane is the fastest way to slow near-term warming.

SABIC maintains its 2050 carbon neutrality goal and continues to target a 20% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 2030 from a 2018 baseline. Although SABIC has achieved a 13.95% reduction in emissions since its 2018 baseline, this progress came entirely in the first few years and has stalled more recently; with absolute Scopes 1 and 2 emissions having declined by 3% since 2021, and increased marginally (0.4%) year-over-year in 2024.

Dentsu has science-based net zero targets for climate looking out to 2030 and 2040. By 2030, it aims to reduce absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 46.2% relative to a 2019 baseline, and absolute Scope 3 emissions by 46.2% from a 2019 baseline. Dentsu is most likely heading towards a 1.5°C pathway by 2030.

WPP has science-based targets for emissions. These include reducing its absolute Scopes 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 84% by 2025 against a 2019 baseline, and reducing its Scope 3 emissions by 50% by 2030 against a 2019 baseline. Our analysis suggests WPP is on track to meet its Scopes 1 and 2 targets, but will miss its Scope 3 target. WPP is most likely heading towards a 2.0°C pathway by 2030.

Publicis has science-based targets to reduce its Scope 1, 2 and 3 greenhouse gas emissions by 50% by 2030 and by 90% by 2040. Although historical trends extrapolated forward indicate strong progress on reducing Scopes 1 and 2 emissions, Scope 3 emissions have risen, driven by business growth. Absent a significant change in the Scope 3 trajectory, this suggests alignment with a 2.0°C warming scenario.

Omnicom aims to achieve a reduction in total greenhouse gas emissions (Scopes 1, 2 and 3) of 46.2% by 2030 versus a 2019 baseline. Between 2019 and 2023, Scopes 1, 2, and upstream Scope 3 emissions decreased by 30.2%, primarily driven by an absolute decrease of 31.7% in Scope 3. Omnicom is most likely heading towards a 1.5°C pathway by 2030.

Interpublic Group (IPG) has a goal to reduce its absolute Scopes 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 50% by 2030 against a 2019 baseline and a 30% reduction in its Scope 3 emissions by 2030. This target is in line with the trajectory of emissions we derive based on the reduction achieved from 2019 to 2022. IPG is most likely heading towards a 1.5°C pathway by 2030.

Havas has a goal to reduce its absolute Scopes 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 71% by 2035 against a 2018 baseline. It also targets reducing emissions linked to business operations by 43% by 2035. Based on our extrapolation, Havas is on target to deliver these reductions and is most likely heading towards a 2.0°C pathway by 2030.
