A report released on Monday suggests that environmental obligations made by 25 of the world’s largest corporations largely fail to put forward their declared “zero emission” and “carbon neutral” goals.
The study by the Corporate Climate Responsibility Monitor also concluded that the companies’ climate pledges require more detailed evaluation, as most of the corporations tend to exaggerate or misreport their success.
Google, Amazon, Ikea, Apple and Nestle were named among those failing to adapt to their goals quickly enough, with only Maersk, Vodafone and Deutsche Telekom being able to remove 90% of their carbon emissions following their declared strategies.
In order to evaluate the companies’ actions, the researchers used factors such as annually disclosed emissions, breakdown of emission sources, and an understandable way to make such information public.
