T
he Indonesian-based Tunas Sawa Erma (TSE) Group, is determined to prove its commitment to contributing to global-scale efforts and reach net-zero emissions by 2050.
The group uses the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) standards to define its emissions goals, with the aim of collectively limiting global warming to below 1.5 Celsius. The SBTi is a global body enabling businesses to set ambitious emissions-reductions targets in line with the latest climate science, and has collaborated with companies across the world to reduce their carbon emissions.
TSE Group also promises to establish both short-term and long-term targets that will encompass all operational activities and the supply chain and take into account carbon sequestration potential from the plantations and forests it manages, as promised by TSE group director Luwy Leunufna.
In line with Indonesia’s commitment to cut emissions by 29 percent below business-as-usual in 2030, TSE Group has vowed to adhere to local rules and regulations to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and contribute to nationally determined contribution (NDC) targets, which were previously set per the Paris Agreement, of which Indonesia is a part.
