Atos Group strives to be an environmental leader in the digital sector by setting ambitious decarbonization targets
Atos Group is committed to the most demanding 1.5ºC science-based Target
Our current commitment is to reduce its absolute Greenhouse gas emissions by 50% by 2025 (All GHG Protocol Scopes 1, 2 and 3; in CO2e; 2019 base year). This ambitious near-term target was validated by the Science-Based Target initiative (SBTi) in 2020.
Based on policies (notably the environmental policy), processes, guidelines and action plans underpinned by the Environmental Management System (EMS), Atos is organized to achieve the emission reductions and energy efficiency needed to fight climate change.

- Three Atos data centers in the UK and Germany have been recognized for their exemplary energy efficiency by the Data Centers European Code of Conduct Awards 2023.
Future decarbonization targets
Following the achievement of the current near-term target, we are committed to further our decarbonization commitments with new short, long and net-zero targets to be submitted to the SBTi for validation.
Short-term target
Absolute GHG emissions reduction from 2025 baseline (All GHG Protocol Scopes 1, 2 and 3; in CO2e)
Net-zero target
Absolute GHG emissions reduction from 2025 baseline and neutralization of residual emissions
Our environmental journey
Our environmental program is focused on reducing the environmental impacts of our activities based on environmental awareness and empowerment of our employees. The Atos Environmental Program has significantly reduced our carbon footprint, meeting the most demanding scientific objectives of the Science-Based Target initiative (SBTi) to keep global warming at 1.5°C.
