Compagnie de Saint-Gobain SA (SGO.FR) said Monday that it pledges to become carbon neutral by 2050.

The French materials company said that it is joining a group of high-profile companies--a list that includes Nestle SA (NESN.EB), L'Oreal SA (LRLCY), AstraZeneca PLC (AZN.LN) and Danone SA (BN.FR)--which have set carbon-emissions targets compatible with limiting global temperature increases to 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels.
