TARGET
Become carbon neutral in our own operations by 2030
2023 PROGRESS
18.9% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions.1
Completed 38 energy-related carbon abatement projects at our sites in 2023.
TARGET
Source 100% renewable electricity by 2030
2023 PROGRESS
32.6% renewable electricity sourced to align with our RE100 commitment.2
13.7% renewable energy sourced.3
On-site solar arrays now installed at 7 Zoetis facilities.
TARGET
Rethink business travel and work-from-home policies to reduce transportation-related emissions by 25% by 20254
2023 PROGRESS
Reduced colleague transportation-related emissions intensity by 35.6%.
In 2022, we set a goal to be carbon neutral in our own operations and accelerated our RE100 commitment to source 100% renewable electricity in our operations, both by 2030. To achieve carbon neutrality, we are focused on reducing emissions by:
- Driving energy efficiency at our sites
- Transitioning our fleet to more fuel-efficient, hybrid and electric vehicles, and utilizing biofuels where available
- Powering our operations with clean, renewable electricity
We have made considerable progress toward our RE100 commitment in 2023. Now, ten of our 29 manufacturing sites are operating with 100% renewable electricity. We also installed photovoltaic solar arrays at four of our sites.
34.5%
of our manufacturing sites operate with 100% renewable electricity
