CDP named us to the Climate A List for the third time.
CDP
Our 2016 A- score demonstrates an ongoing commitment to reducing emissions in our operations and sourcing renewable energy, as well as helping our customers lead more sustainable lives.
CDP released its S&P 500 Annual Report, including the Carbon Disclosure Leadership Index, in which Best Buy received the maximum score of 100. Adding to our “A” designation for our carbon reduction program, Best Buy achieved a perfect score.
Best Buy has been awarded a prized position on the CDP Climate A List for our efforts to reduce carbon emissions in the past year.
The commendation puts Best Buy in the top 5 percent of thousands of companies that submit annual emissions data and climate management strategies to CDP (formerly Carbon Disclosure Project).
We are in good company. Other corporate “A Listers” now include sustainability powerhouses and partners such as Apple, Google, LG, Microsoft, Samsung, Sony and Sprint.
The A List designation comes shortly after Best Buy set a new goal to reduce carbon emissions by 45 percent by 2020 and signed the American Business Act Pledge on Climate Change.
