“We are honored to be named to USA Today’s inaugural America’s
Climate Leaders list,” said Beth Holland, Aptar's Vice President of
Global Sustainability. “When it comes to caring for the
environment, we rely on metrics and science to guide our decision
making and we have made considerable progress advancing key areas
of our global sustainability strategy. Having surpassed our
original Scope 1 and Scope 2 reduction target within the first year
of validation by SBTi, we saw the need to set a more aggressive
ambition, which underscores our commitment to sustainability and
protecting the environment."
After significantly surpassing its original Scope 1 and 2
targets, Aptar validated its revised Scope 1 and Scope 2 reduction
target by the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) in early
March 2023 to align to the requirements to keep global warming at
1.5° Celsius by 2030. Aptar also has validated SBTi targets for
Scope 3 emissions and renewable energy purchases. Increasingly,
Aptar believes that sustainable companies, in addition to helping
safeguard the environment, will also have a competitive
advantage.
To determine the rankings, USA Today and Statista began with a
list of more than 2,000 US-based companies with revenue of more
than $50 million in 2021 and then narrowed it to the 700 companies
who reported their emissions data. Considerations used in the
rankings included emission intensity, annualized reductions in
emission intensity, carbon disclosure rating and other criteria.
