Global warming potential of your portfolio, in degrees celsius. Calculated as the weighted-average global warming potential of portfolio holdings, using current emissions data and targets from the Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTI).

Through the 2015 Paris Agreement, world governments committed to curbing global temperature rise to well-below 2°C above pre-industrial levels and pursuing efforts to limit warming to 1.5°C. In 2018, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change warned that global warming must not exceed 1.5°C to avoid the catastrophic impacts of climate change.

Global warming potential based on emissions reductions commitments made through the SBTI and current carbon emissions across the value chain (scope 1, 2 and 3) for portfolio holdings. The SBTI provides a standard, independent methodology to assess and approve company targets in line with strict criteria. In some cases we consider commitments to net-zero emissions made outside of the SBTI, when a company is able to credibly demonstrate its commitment.
