The SBTi has Approved Our Near Term Science-Based Emissions Reduction Target
Our Commitment
Whitestone Works LLC commits to maintain zero scope 1 and scope 2 through 2030, and to measure and reduce its scope 3 emissions from a 2024 base year.
We are proud to share that our near-term target has been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Additionally, this target ambition was determined by SBTi’s Target Validation Team to be in line with a 1.5°C trajectory–the most ambitious designation available through the SBTi process.
This validation serves as a key benchmark to guide our broader sustainability strategy and ensure our actions align with the latest climate science. Substantial and meaningful emissions reductions are essential to avoid the most severe impacts of climate change. We are proud to take this step and encourage our partners, peers, and stakeholders to join us in setting science-based targets and working toward a net-zero future.
What is SBTi?
The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) is a globally recognized organization setting the standard for emissions reductions and net-zero goals rooted in climate science. Backed by CDP, the United Nations Global Compact, World Resources Institute, and the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), SBTi offers businesses a credible, transparent framework to take meaningful climate action.
In other words, SBTi helps ensure companies commit to targets backed by science. We’re proud to take this first step in reducing our carbon emissions by ensuring our reduction targets are grounded in science.
Why SBTi Matters
For us, SBTi is more than an endorsement. It’s a commitment.
SBTi provides the accountability needed to drive real change. It’s why we’ve made it a core part of RISE by Whitestone, our sustainability framework designed to advance the industry.
By adopting science-based targets, we’re proving to our partners and clients that sustainability is not just a core value; it’s an actionable practice. We’re proud to stand alongside a growing global community of businesses leveraging SBTi to create a healthier, more sustainable future for all.
