Science Based Targets Network aims to set the standard for ambitious measurable corporate action on nature, which includes, and builds upon, climate action.
The Science Based Targets Network (SBTN) is a unique collaboration of over 80 leading global environmental non-profits, international agencies and mission-driven entities; a collective of the world's leading scientists and sustainability experts.
We have come together to equip companies and cities with the guidance, tools and methods they need to operate within Earth’s limits while also meeting society’s needs.
The SBTN is one of five components that make up the Global Commons Alliance (GCA). GCA is a network of forward looking organizations working to ensure that societies and the global economy thrive, sustained by healthy global commons, on a stable planet.
In 2023, GCA identified safe and just Earth System Boundaries for humanity, created the first related science-based targets for all global commons, and is building the advocacy, accountability and information systems to take this to scale.
Our collective mission is to empower citizens, cities, companies, and countries to become stewards of our global commons.
