environmental scorecard
Our environmental scorecard includes six metrics that address our own resource efficiency, environmental management and sustainable design.
Energy
In 2008, we consumed 362 gigajoules of electricity, gas, propane, steam and diesel per million U.S. dollars revenue. We aim to reduce energy intensity by 30 percent by 2018.
Waste
In 2008, we sent 1.98 metric tons of waste to landfill or for incineration per million U.S. dollars revenue. Our 2018 goal is to reduce waste intensity by 20 percent.
Water
In 2008, we consumed 86 cubic meters of water per million U.S. dollars revenue. Our 2018 goal is to reduce water intensity by 10 percent.
Greenhouse Gas Emissions (GHG)
In 2008, we emitted 45 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent per million U.S. dollars revenue. Our 2018 goal is to reduce GHG intensity by 30 percent. This goal extends our previous target to reduce our global GHG intensity by 30 percent from 2002 to 2012, which we achieved in 2008. Our United States Environmental Protection Agency Climate Leaders goal of reducing our U.S. GHG intensity by 30 percent from 2002 to 2012 remains in effect.
ISO 14001
This environmental manage¬ment system standard helps businesses reduce their environmental footprint and decrease pollution and waste. Our 2012 goal is for 100 percent of manufacturing facilities to be compliant or certified to ISO 14001.
Design for Sustainability
Our Design for Sustainability program helps us manage and minimize environmental impact across the product lifecycle including design, manufacturing, use and disposal. In 2009, we modified our existing design systems.
