Working together for net zero

Climate change is a problem whose solution cannot be postponed until tomorrow. Rather, it is an instruction for action today. Cooperation is required to achieve net zero. Because: net zero is not an individual project.  For companies to succeed in reducing their own carbon footprint as close to zero as possible and also neutralise all remaining emissions, a holistic view of business operations along the entire value chain is required – from strategy to reporting.

To achieve true climate neutrality, companies must identify and prioritise their organisation’s impact on the climate. This means understanding where you are now, what your climate target is and what strategies will get you there. In addition, introducing management tools and reporting processes is essential in order to successfully move towards net zero. Use of new technologies and investment in innovation can also provide an additional boost towards net zero targets.

“It’s now or never: if we’re going to limit global warming to 1.5°C, we must push ahead with decarbonisation now in order to achieve climate neutrality no later than 2050. This requires a radical turnaround in the economy and applies across all sectors.”

Gunther Dütsch,Partner, Sustainability Services & Climate Risk at PwC Germany

Climate reporting and communication

When it comes to reporting and communicating climate activities, our focus is on helping you to ensure that you can always provide the right non-financial information on your net zero strategy in a timely and high-quality manner. As part of your sustainability reporting, we use our expertise in external reporting requirements to help you publish your climate information comprehensively. This allows you to make decisions faster and to provide market players the details on your net zero transformation. Verifying this information, as it has been a matter of course in financial reporting for decades, increases the trustworthiness of non-financial reports – both internally and externally.
