港交所(00388.HK)承諾於2024年實現碳中和 2040年實現淨零排放
港交所(00388.HK)今天(27日)宣布實現碳中和與淨零排放的承諾。港交所將致力於2024年實現碳中和,並於2040年實現淨零排放,反映集團長期以來對推動全球市場及社會可持續發展的決心。
為了與《巴黎協定》限制全球升溫攝氏1.5度的目標保持一致,港交所承諾將持續減少其範圍一、範圍二及範圍三的溫室氣體排放,並於2040年中和其剩餘排放量。港交所亦計劃於2024年向科學基礎目標倡議組織(Science Based Targets initiative)提交其基於科學的減排目標以供驗證。
在實現2040年「淨零排放」的基礎上,港交所致力通過提高能源效益、使用可再生能源電力及進行低碳採購來減少其營運的碳排放。港交所也將繼續與其價值鏈的業務合作夥伴合作,支持他們制訂以科學為基礎的減排目標。
港交所今天亦作出了於2024年實現碳中和的承諾,銳意加快氣候行動,希望能以此為實現社會淨零排放作出貢獻,有關措施包括擴大集團的碳抵銷政策,透過購買優質認證的碳信用產品抵銷所有(重大)碳排放。
港交所主席史美倫稱,聯合國最新發布的氣候變化報告顯示,全球氣候行動「嚴重偏離正軌」。當前時間緊迫,必須採取更多行動,為子孫後代和地球開創可持續發展未來。今天很高興與大家宣布,港交所將加快實現淨零排放和碳中和的目標。承諾在2040年實現淨零排放,比原定目標提前了十年,這表明了集團持續及積極應對氣候變化的決心。港交所呼籲大家一起行動,共同應對氣候變化。拯救地球,刻不容緩。
港交所集團行政總裁歐冠昇稱,港交所既是市場監管機構、市場運營者,也是一家企業。在支持全球企業和投資者向低碳轉型方面,集團擁有獨特優勢,也肩負重任。港交所正在積極創建一個充滿活力的投資生態圈,以支持企業轉型至可持續發展,並提升其氣候適應能力。集團提供一系列可以幫助企業實現可持續發展目標的平台:例如碳交易平台Core Climate,綠色債券市場,及為上市發行人提供ESG教育的ESG Academy。今天,港交所以身作則,發揮引領作用,制定了自己的淨零排放和碳中和目標。集團必須實現這個目標,否則因氣候變化帶來的後果難以想像。
港交所集團旗下的倫敦金屬交易所也承諾在2040年實現淨零排放,並計劃在2024年向科學基礎目標倡議組織提交其基於科學的減排目標以供驗證。
