CalSTRS (California State Teachers' Retirement System), headquartered in the United States, is a state-owned pension fund providing retirement, disability, and survivor benefits to California’s public school educators from prekindergarten through community college. It serves members and beneficiaries through a traditional defined benefit plan, cash balance plans and a voluntary defined contribution plan. CalSTRS is recognised as one of the largest public pension funds in the world, managing assets on behalf of educators and their beneficiaries.
The company has a total score of G - Uncommitted. This score reflects two dimensions: transition plan quality (TPQ), for which the company scores 0 out of 5; and contribution to the low-carbon transition (CTT), for which the company scores 0 out of 2. A TPQ score of 0 - “Uncommitted” (shown in the x axis in the figure) indicates that the company does not disclose GHG emissions categories with sufficient granularity, nor does it provide sufficient information to assess the credibility of its targets. Moreover, the company does not disclose any of the key elements of a transition plan. The CTT score is 0, meaning that the company is not deploying sufficient levels of low-carbon investments, and the emissions reductions and targets are incompatible with an ambitious 1.5°C sectoral pathway. The y axis in the figure shows the result of indicator F01.A, the alignment of the company’s emissions, production or financial activity with a 1.5°C ambition - a key component of CTT. The deployment of low-carbon investments, another component of CTT, is shown in the scatterplot below.
