Best Buy is proud to be recognized on CDP’s prestigious Climate A List for the ninth consecutive year.
We have been credited as a leader by CDP for our efforts addressing climate change and advancing of our environmental goals. This year’s recognition is based on our actions to cut emissions, mitigate climate risks and drive low-carbon initiatives.
How we made the Climate A List
Each year, CDP assesses companies worldwide on transparency, risk management and environmental leadership. Out of nearly 20,000 companies scored in 2025, Best Buy earned an “A” rating for our comprehensive disclosure and commitment to best practices, including setting ambitious, science-based goals.
Here are a few examples of our environmental work:
- We set a goal to reduce carbon emissions by 75% by 2030 (over a 2009 baseline) and to become carbon neutral by 2040. In FY25, we achieved a carbon emission reduction of 74%.
- After exceeding our water reduction goal of 15% in FY24, we’ve continued to build on this momentum and reduced our water consumption across our enterprise by nearly 21% since 2019.
- In FY25, we helped our customers recycle over 144 million pounds of old tech and appliances, supporting the circular economy by keeping tech out of the landfills and giving it a second life.
- We set a goal to certify all of our supply chain facilities for TRUE zero waste, and in FY25 we were more than halfway to achieving it, with 20 facilities diverting more than 90% of its waste from landfills.
