Forest, Land, and Agriculture Science Based Target Setting Guidance

Download the document.

This document supports companies that are interested in setting science-based targets for Forest,
Land, and Agriculture-related greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and removals according to the
new, refined pathways in the Forest Land and Agriculture (FLAG) tool. It builds on the existing
manual and guidance of the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) for setting science-based
targets. Companies in land-intensive sectors have a critical role to play in the transition to a low carbon economy. Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land Use (AFOLU) emissions represent nearly
a quarter of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
