Approved science-based targets

In 2024, we pledged to set near-term targets under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) by year-end 2025, formalizing our commitment to sustainability and confirming the company’s dedication to concrete science-based action.

Approved by the SBTi in 2025, these targets align our roadmap with the Paris Agreement’s 1.5°C goal for Scopes 1 and 2 emissions, and maintain our ambitious reduction trajectory on Scope 3 under the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol.

Progress on our near-term science-based targets:

 

Target:

Reduce absolute Scopes 1 and 2 GHG emissions to 62.3% by 2030 from 2019 base year

Progress:
60.3% reduction in 2025

 

Target:

Reduce Scope 3 GHG emissions from business travel by 55% per million‑dollar value added by 2030 from 2019 base year

Progress:

Target:

77% of our suppliers by spend, covering purchased goods and services, capital goods, upstream transportation and distribution, will have science‑based targets (SBTs) by 2030

Progress:
28% set as of 2025

* CO2e (carbon dioxide equivalents) is a unit that makes it possible to compare the climate effects of different types of GHGs by expressing the emissions as equivalent to carbon dioxide.

Climate strategy

We integrate environmental responsibility into how we conduct business, manage our operations and support ecosystems in the communities in which we live and work. We demonstrate our commitment by conducting our activities responsibly and applying environmental best practices throughout our operations. This mainly involves our office operations, data center activities, IT asset procurement and business travel.

Our climate strategy includes the following:

Energy
  • Use 100% renewable electricity at all offices and data centers by 2030
  • Reduce our energy consumption
Travel
  • Transition our car fleet to 80% full electric vehicles (EVs) and 20% full hybrid EVs (FHEVs) and plug-in hybrid EVs (PHEVs) by 2030
  • Reduce the CO2e emissions of company business travel
Supply chain
  • Collaborate with our major suppliers to promote sustainability practices while also advancing our supplier-focused science-based target
  • Promote circular economy principles
Stakeholder collaboration
  • Develop awareness, engage and empower CGI Partners
  • Support our clients and collaborate on environmental objectives
  • Pursue activities with community organizations
Resource Management
  • Follow the three Rs (reduce, reuse and recycle) targeting e-waste and general waste
  • Conserve water through responsible use and efficiency

Raising climate awareness across our global operations

To engage and empower CGI Partners, we provide awareness training on sustainable practices. In addition, countries in each strategic business unit (SBU) take action to raise awareness at all levels. We also pursue activities with multiple communities and organizations. For instance, recognizing the positive impact of forests on biodiversity, together with CGI Partners and clients across geographies, we planted more than 52,000 trees this year.
