NEW RESEARCH: How many sustainability targets are actually aligned to meet the limits and thresholds

Article 13 is delighted to announce the launch of Project#D.

Our year on year analysis of company reporting shows an increase in sustainability performance measurement and more targets being set against our planetary limits and social thresholds. But only 15% of these targets are actually aligned to meet the limits and thresholds of what the world needs to survive.

This means 85% of sustainability targets are misaligned. Even if reached, they will fail to have the necessary impact.

It's the same story with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with 94% of companies failing to assess performance against specific SDG targets or indicators.

It's time to get targets realigned for impact. ​

Our Project #D Impact Assessment is designed and tested with companies to help experts embed planetary limits and social thresholds into their organisation:

* Systematically assess the impact of all the limits and thresholds

* Move from measuring activity to absolute impact

* Set targets which deliver to what the world needs

* Make the limits and thresholds simple to understand and communicate.
