- Natura &Co has committed to set a 1.5 degrees C climate target aligned with a 
net-zero future.

Ahead of the UN Climate Action Summit in September, Natura &Co is stepping up 
its commitment to set a new level of climate ambition as part of "Business 
Ambition for 1.5 degrees C: Our Only Future" campaign . As part of this 
commitment, Natura &Co together with 21 other companies with a total market 
capitalization of over $1.7 trillion will pledge to limit its contribution to 
global temperature rise to 1.5 degrees C above pre-industrial levels and 
reaching net-zero emissions by no later than 2050.

This commitment supports the most recent report* by the Intergovernmental Panel 
on Climate Change (IPCC), which warned of catastrophic consequences should 
global warming exceed 1.5 degrees C.

"The UN Secretary-General has called on leaders to come to the Climate Action 
Summit in September with clear plans for major cuts to emissions on the pathway 
to a zero-net emissions economy by 2050," said Ambassador Luis Alfonso de Alba, 
the UN Secretary-General's Special Envoy for the Climate Action Summit. "It is 
very encouraging to see these climate leaders in the global business community 
taking action, both to help tackle the climate emergency and because taking 
climate action presents huge opportunities for early movers. By sending strong 
market signals, these companies are showing Governments that they need to 
urgently ramp up their national plans in line with the latest climate science."

Roberto Marques, Executive Chairman of Natura &Co said:  "For the sake of the 
next generation, we cannot ignore the climate emergency we face today.  
Business, governments, civil society and individuals must act together and we 
must be more ambitious. Because when it comes down to it, we cannot run 
businesses on a dead planet.  This campaign is a great start and I would 
encourage every business to get involved."

This is the first major commitment made by Natura &Co since its formation 
following the union of Natura, Aesop and The Body Shop to form a purpose-driven 
cosmetics group.
