Ipsen’s Commitment to Zero Emissions: A Step Towards a Sustainable Future
Zero Emission Day is a global initiative that raises awareness about the impact of human activities on climate change and promotes sustainable practices.
At Ipsen, we are taking decisive action to do our part and achieve net zero emissions. Our Generation Ipsen strategy showcases our ongoing efforts and dedication to a sustainable future, reaffirmed through our last position papers.
Our collective actions:
- As part of the “Business Ambition for 1.5°C” initiative, we aim to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 2030, contributing to a net-zero future by addressing all direct and indirect emissions (Scopes 1, 2, and 3).
- We have accelerated efforts to mitigate climate change, with over 95% of our global electricity now sourced from renewable energy. In addition, we are enhancing energy efficiency, optimizing our electric vehicles fleet energy mix, and investing in innovative heat recovery technologies. In 2023, we achieved a 36% reduction in our Scope 1 & 2 emissions compared to 2019, surpassing our initial goal of a 17% reduction.
In 2024, we hosted a session “Say on climate” during our general shareholders meeting to raise awareness about climate actions among our shareholders.
Recent climate data underscores the urgency of such commitments. The new heat record set on July 22, 2024 emphasis the importance of responsible business practices and the immediate need for action.
Through our Generation Ipsen strategy, we remain dedicated to continuous improvement in sustainability by actively participating in global initiatives and setting ambitious targets. Together, we can achieve a healthier and more sustainable world for future generations.
