Climate Action

Climate change is one of the greatest threats humanity has ever faced and the mobile industry has a big part to play in fighting this global crisis.

The mobile sector has worked collaboratively to create an industry-wide climate action roadmap to achieve net zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2050, in line with the Paris Agreement.
Around 80% of the global mobile industry by revenue is now disclosing their climate impacts, energy and GHG emissions via the internationally recognised CDP global disclosure system.
Over 60% of the industry by revenue has committed to Science-Based Targets to cut their carbon emissions rapidly over the next decade
The mobile industry was recognised as one of the first Breakthrough industries and the GSMA as an Accelerator for the UN Race to Zero.
Mobile for Development’s ClimateTech programme is furthering these efforts by encouraging even greater integration between digital technology and climate mitigation, adaptation and resilience strategies in low and middle income countries.
