We recognise the role that we have played in driving consumption on a planet with constrained resources.

Climate action\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWe believe that for business growth to be truly sustainable, we must accelerate the transition to a low carbon future and reduce the impact of climate change by reaching real net zero. We are proud to be one of the first companies in the world to have our net zero target validated under the new SBTi Net-Zero Standard.\n\nOur net zero target is aligned with limiting global temperature rise to 1.5\u00b0C to prevent the worst impacts of climate change. It includes two targets. A near-term target to reduce absolute emissions by 46.2% by 2030 across Scope 1, 2 and 3 (from a 2019 base year) and a long-term deep decarbonisation target to reduce absolute emissions across our entire value chain by 90% by 2040. Our focus is on carbon reduction and once we\u2019ve achieved the 90% reduction we will neutralise any residual emissions by investing in nature based solutions. \u200b\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Sustainable consumption and production\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tBut the radical decarbonisation of our business and value chain is only the first step. We also recognise that as a digital communications and marketing network, the biggest impact we have is in our ability to change mindsets and influence behaviours. We can raise awareness and inspire people to take action to combat the climate crisis and to live more sustainable lifestyles.\n\nWe believe sustainable consumption and production is about creating balance between the needs of the planet and our needs as individuals, businesses, and communities.\u202fAt present we have an imbalance. Over the next decade we are committed to helping 1 billion people make better, more sustainable choices.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The carbon impact of advertising covers production, placement, and end use. Reducing emissions from advertising for our clients requires insight across the whole value chain, from production to placement.<\/p>

Production
<\/strong>As part of the\u00a0AdGreen Advisory Board, a UK advertising initiative, dentsu is collaborating with the industry to eliminate the negative environmental impacts of production.<\/p>

Media<\/strong><\/p>

Digital media has been dentsu\u2019s initial focus as it accounts for a large portion of our client\u2019s ad spend, and this is only expected to grow. In 2019, dentsu partnered with some of the world’s most innovative media companies \u2013 including BBC and Sky – to launch DIMPACT, a web-based tool that calculates the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions associated with digital media content. This tool has grown from strength to strength since then.<\/p>

We\u2019re combining in-house innovation with industry initiatives such as DIMPACT. In recognition of the need to calculate emissions at a campaign level, dentsu is piloting a Digital Media Carbon Calculator to accurately report on client\u2019s emissions and provide verifiable data for reporting. In the future this will allow clients to understand the emissions linked to their media choices and make proactive informed decisions about the type of digital advertising used.<\/p>

We have set a target to reduce the absolute emissions associated with media by 46% from a 2019 baseline year, in line with limiting global temperature rise to 1.5\u00b0C above pre-industrial levels.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
