As sustainability leaders from around the world gather at the One Planet Summit,<\/a> we\u2019re reminded of the urgency of the climate crisis and inspired by those who, together, are rising to meet the challenge head on.<\/p>\n

Two years ago, the Paris Climate Agreement gave us all a clearer understanding of what\u2019s at stake. Limiting global temperature rise this century to less than two degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels is essential if we are to avoid widespread, disastrous ecological problems.<\/p>\n

It was at COP21 in 2015 where we first presented our 10 sustainability commitments<\/a> in order to build carbon neutrality within Schneider Electric\u2019s ecosystem and to accurately quantify the carbon impact of all our major customer projects.<\/p>\n

So, as we meet once again to collaborate in the fight against climate change, I\u2019m excited to provide more details<\/a> about Schneider\u2019s strategy to become carbon neutral by 2030.<\/p>\n

Schneider has joined RE100<\/a> and EP100<\/a> \u2014 two global, collaborative initiatives of influential businesses led by The Climate Group<\/a> and committed to climate action.<\/p>\n
