It comes after the budget carrier joined the UN-backed Race to Zero campaign in November last year and committed to achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. Since 2000, easyJet has reduced its carbon emissions per passenger, per kilometre by one-third.
The 2035 target aligns with the Science-Based Targets (SBT) sectoral decarbonisation pathway and has been submitted to the Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi) for validation.
The SBTi is a partnership between CDP, the United Nations Global Compact, World Resources Institute (WRI) and the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), which guides companies on their decarbonisation journeys, in line with the Paris Agreement.
