The company said it has now reduced its Scope 1 and 2 direct emission intensity by 87 per cent since 2006 and is "well on track" to becoming carbon-neutral in its own energy generation and operations by 2025. A sustainable future for our planet requires a rapid transition to renewable energy and limiting global warming to 1.5C.

A half century ago climate models accurately predicted global warming. A brief review of climate science shows us that we have known about the dangers of a warming planet since the 1950s. In 2006 the Stern Review warned us that we had to urgently reduce our emissions to avoid the worst impacts of climate change.
