2030 GOALS

Our 2030 goals underscore Carrier's commitment to the things that matter and to continuously challenge ourselves to think bigger and to be better. Expanding on three decades of environmental targets, our goals include measures to reduce impact on our planet, and support our people and our communities through sustainable solutions, investments and practices. We strive to be a catalyst for positive and sustainable change as we innovate, empower our people and operate with integrity. That is The Carrier Way.

Carrier received validation of our near- and long-term greenhouse gas emission-reduction goals in line with the Science Based Targets initiative to limit global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial temperatures. In accordance with this initiative, we unveiled our road map to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across our value chain by 2050.

Planet

Climate change is among the most significant issues facing humanity. Buildings are estimated to account for approximately 21% of global greenhouse emissions.¹ Approximately 20% of all food produced for human consumption is lost or wasted every year, generating approximately 10% of global greenhouse gas emissions.²

Achieve net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions across our value chain by 2050.

Reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 42% by 2030, from a 2021 baseline.

Reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 25% by 2030, from a 2021 baseline.

Invest over $4B to develop intelligent climate and energy solutions that reduce environmental impacts.

Avoid more than 1 gigaton of customer greenhouse gas emissions.

Achieve carbon neutral operations.

Reduce energy intensity by 10% across our operations.

Deploy water stewardship programs across our global operations, prioritizing water-scarce locations.

Divert more than 95% of operational waste from landfill disposal.
