Energy Use & Greenhouse Gas Emissions

Our climate is changing, and greenhouse gas emissions are the cause. Recognizing the risk that changing weather patterns and higher temperatures bring to our planet, our communities, and our business, we are working to identify our areas of highest emissions and take action to reduce them.​

​Scope 1 and 2 Emissions​

We have set a net-zero target for our Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2030. We will achieve this by working to transition our electricity use to renewable sources by 2025, minimizing natural gas and diesel use, and purchasing carbon offsets for remaining emissions.

Information on our 2023 energy use and Scope 1 and 2 emissions is below.

Scope 3 Emissions​

Almost all our emissions occur within our supply chain. An overview of our Scope 3 emissions based on a 2023 emission inventory can be found below. We are working with suppliers from the areas within our supply chain that generate the most emissions to understand their emission sources and opportunities for reduction.
