The Paragon Carbon Net Zero Plan forms a key part of our Planet pillar. It lays out our short and long-term targets that will deliver lasting change. The plan is aligned with the Paris Climate Agreement to limit global warming to 1.5C above pre-industrial levels.

We have set ambitious targets, against a baseline of our FY 2021/2022:

• Scope 1: 50% reduction by 2032, followed by 90% reduction by 2040
• Scope 2: 90% reduction by 2032, followed by 90% reduction by 2040
• Scope 3 Engagement: 90% of supply chain spend with partners with a science-aligned Carbon Net Zero Plan by 2032
• Scope 3 Intensity target: 50% reduction in carbon intensity by 2032, followed by 97% reduction by 2045
