It calls for all members to pledge to achieve net zero emissions by 2050 by setting 1.5<sup>\u2070<\/sup>C science targets. The IPCC issued a report in 2021 that again emphasized the deadly effects of climate change and dire need to address it.

We are taking the next step by joining the Race to Zero and setting science-based targets to help address the worst effects of climate change \u2013 including the irreversible harm to human health \u2013 particularly in vulnerable people and populations.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In 2020, BD committed to reduce Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions 46% by 2030 (from a 2019 baseline) and to be carbon neutral across its direct operations by 2040.
