    S&P Global | Tracking Net-zero Commitments

    While more of the world’s large companies have set net-zero targets in recent years, they are still the exception rather than the rule, according to the latest data from the S&P Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment (CSA). Only one in four of the 6,416 companies reviewed by the 2022 CSA for their climate ambition have set net-zero emissions targets, showing that the private sector has a long way to go to play its part in combatting climate change. Join S&P Global Sustainable1 and examine Net zero commitments by region and sector, and the varying levels of strategies for achieving those commitments.
