Singtel sets new emission targets 

It aims for a group-wide 55% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions.

Singtel will make more aggressive cuts to its greenhouse gas emissions to align with the goals of the Paris Climate Agreement to limit global warming to 1.5°C. 

The company aims for a group-wide 55% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 direct and indirect greenhouse gas emissions and a 40% reduction in Scope 3 third-party emissions by 2030, using 2023 as the base year.

The new targets set by Singtel have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), marking a first in the telecoms space in Asia.

“The SBTi Target Validation Team has confirmed that the net-zero goal of 2045, which Singtel had brought forward from 2050 in July 2023, is closely aligned with SBTi’s most stringent criteria,” Singtel stated.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
