Home Depot has published its 2021 Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Report. The document notes Home Depot’s goal to reach 100 percent renewable electricity for its facilities by 2030. On that front, the company reduced carbon emissions intensity by more than 20 percent last year. The retailer also joined the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) to reduce global emissions, committing to set goals for emissions by 2023.
“Our commitment to reducing our impact on the planet, taking care of our people, and building strong, sustainable communities is foundational to who we are,” said Craig Menear, chairman and CEO of The Home Depot.
