Science Based Targets initiative approves HubSpot’s emissions reduction targets focused on energy efficiency, hybrid work, and supplier engagement
CAMBRIDGE, Mass.: HubSpot, the customer platform for scaling businesses, is taking urgent climate action, and proudly announces that its near and long-term science-based emissions reduction targets (SBTs) have been approved by the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi). As part of the validation, HubSpot has committed to reaching net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its value chain by 2040.
With SBTi’s validation, HubSpot, recently named one of America’s Greenest Companies by Newsweek, joins just over 400 companies that have boldly committed to reaching net-zero on or before 2040.
“Having our targets validated by the Science Based Targets initiative is an important milestone on our climate journey, and one step towards a net-zero carbon future,” said Yogesh Chauhan, Director of ESG at HubSpot. “The climate crisis requires collective action and bold solutions, and we’re committed to working with our customers, partners, and the wider tech industry to build a brighter future for generations to come.”
HubSpot’s validated SBTs, aligned with our commitment to reaching net-zero carbon by 2040, are:
Near-Term Targets
Long-Term Target
To amplify impact, HubSpot’s commitment extends beyond its own operations to its relationship with employees, customers, partners, and communities. HubSpot’s commitment to net-zero carbon involves three key areas:
Kristin Hostetter, Head of Sustainability, Outside Interactive, said, “At Outside, sustainability is at the forefront of our mission and we are committed to reducing our carbon footprint. To get there, we focus on addressing the carbon intensity of our business and working closely with our vendors and partners to bring more renewable energy into our supply chain. As a HubSpot customer, it’s been invaluable to learn about HubSpot’s path to net-zero as we pursue our own decarbonization journey.”
The next decade is critical in addressing the impact of climate change, and HubSpot can’t tackle it alone. HubSpot is dedicated to following the latest climate science, partnering with companies that share its goals, and openly sharing learnings along the way. HubSpot hopes to inspire others to set their own climate targets in the path towards a net-zero future together.
