By joining SBTi and the Business Ambition for 1.5°C campaign, the Company has two years to set the target based on the SBTi methodology, including its own emissions and emissions throughout the value chain. It has also joined the Race to Zero global campaign, a coalition of leaders, supported by UN, who are committed to the goal of working towards zeroing net greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. For this, Suzano will continue to invest in innovation and modernization projects focused on fuel efficiency, reducing the consumption of fossil fuels and energy, and using renewable energy, among others.
