Colgate-Palmolive's carbon footprint

Colgate-Palmolive reported Total CO2e Emissions - Market-Based Scope 1 + Scope 2 for the twelve months ending 31 December 2021 at 486 Kt (+27/+5.9% y-o-y). Carbon intensity also remained flat at 28 t.

Colgate-Palmolive's Scope 3 emissions declined to 40,539 Kt (-5,182 /-11.3% y-o-y). This is a higher rate of decline than over the period since 4Q'16 (-4.9% CAGR).

The company is committed to reducing Scope 1 + 2 by 42% by 2030 from a base year 2020, which translates into the estimated reduction of -24 Kt per annum over the period of FY2022 - FY2030. This science-based target is aligned with Paris Agreement to limit global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels.

Also, the company commits to achieving carbon neutrality for all Scopes by 2040, which translates into the estimated reduction of -2,159 Kt per annum over the period of FY2022 - FY2040. This science-based target is aligned with Paris Agreement to limit global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels.

Colgate-Palmolive aims to achive carbon neutrality across its entire value chain (all Scopes) in 2040. Companies normally become carbon neutral with the help of the acquisition of carbon offsets rather than absolute reductions in their own greenhouse emissions. Also, carbon neutrality does not include non-CO2 GHG emissions.
