The Climate Change 100+ group has released a new report on the abatement strategies of the 161 companies globally that generate the most carbon emissions. The report notes that 70 per cent of these companies have adopted emissions reduction targets, although just nine per cent have set targets that are consistent with the Paris climate agreement. Australian-listed mining groups BHP and South32 are among relatively few of the 161 companies that have set zero net emissions targets.
