日本語
本研究は、企業の排出削減目標を低炭素シナリオと比較。目標設定企業の開示排出量は世界のCO2排出の約20%、時価総額の約60%をカバーするが、短期目標はNGFSのネットゼロシナリオと整合する一方、2050年目標は不十分である。また、カバーする排出量と時価総額の間に大きな乖離があり、政策対応が必要であることを示す。
English
This study audits corporate emissions targets against low-carbon pathways. Disclosures from target-setting companies cover ~20% of global CO2 emissions and 60% of market cap. Near-term targets align with aggressive net-zero scenarios, but 2050 commitments are insufficient. A large disparity exists between emissions coverage and market cap, highlighting a policy gap.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
本論文は、企業の排出削減目標を国際的なネットゼロシナリオと照合する枠組みを提供。日本企業の脱炭素目標の野心度をグローバルな視点で評価する際の指標として有用であり、SSBJや有価証券報告書における目標開示の質向上に示唆を与える。
In the global GX context
By linking corporate targets to global emissions pathways, this paper demonstrates the growing utility of corporate disclosures for macro-level climate forecasting. It underscores the need for regulatory frameworks (e.g., ISSB, CSRD) to address the mismatch between financial and emissions coverage, critical for credible transition finance.
👥 読者別の含意
🔬研究者:Provides a methodology to evaluate corporate ambition against NGFS scenarios and highlights the gap between short- and long-term targets.
🏢実務担当者:Useful for benchmarking your company's targets against global pathways and understanding the importance of covering both near-term and 2050 commitments.
🏛政策担当者:Shows that while near-term targets are promising, long-term commitments are insufficient, and the disparity between emissions coverage and market cap needs policy intervention.
📄 Abstract（原文）
Atmospheric greenhouse gas concentration has been steadily increasing since the 19th century, causing global warming. Despite efforts to reduce emissions, current projections anticipate a significant increase in global surface temperature by the end of the century, which may push us beyond a safe and just operating space. We must develop emissions pathways that consider renewable technology innovation, climate policy development and consumer behaviour change. In this manuscript we assess corporate emissions reduction ambition in the context of reduction pathways, and in doing so show that company reporting has reached a scale and quality that it can be used to supplement global emissions forecasting. We find emissions disclosures of target-setting companies to account for roughly 20% of global \documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$\hbox {CO}_{2}$$\end{document} emissions and 60% of global market capitalisation. Of these, we find near-term targets to be consistent with the aggressive reduction requirements of the divergent net-zero scenario published by the Network for Greening the Financial System, but commitments to 2050 are lacking. There is a large disparity between the total market capitalisation of disclosing companies and the total emissions they cover, a disconnect which we emphasise must be addressed by future policy.
