The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) recognized Chemours for achieving its emissions reduction goal as a partner in the Better Climate Challenge.
The Better Climate Challenge is a DOE initiative that challenges organizations to set ambitious, portfolio-wide greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction goals. The overall goal is to reduce portfolio-wide GHG emissions (scope 1 and 2) by at least 50% within 10 years.
Chemours has reduced scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 58% through decarbonization efforts across its U.S. manufacturing sites and offices.
Dr. Amber Wellman, Chemours’ Chief Sustainability Officer shared, “We are immensely proud to have exceeded the GHG emission goal set under the Better Climate Challenge and to have been recognized by the U.S. Department of Energy for these efforts. Our exceptional teams have dedicated considerable time and effort to surpassing this goal ahead of schedule, and we thank them for their hard work. At Chemours, sustainability is core to everything we do—from our sustainable product offerings to our commitment to responsibly produce essential chemistries. Achieving the Better Climate Challenge goal motivates us to continue pushing forward in achieving our corporate sustainability goals.”
