Carrier aims for carbon neutrality by 2030

USA: Refrigeration, air conditioning and heating manufacturer Carrier has announced its aim to achieve carbon neutrality across its operations by 2030.

In its first set of environmental, social and governance goals since becoming an independent company in April, the company says it also aims to reduce its customers’ carbon footprint by more than 1Gt, supported by a planned investment of more than $2bn over the next 10 years toward the development of healthier, safer and more sustainable building and cold chain solutions. 

“At Carrier, we are applying our industry-leading innovation to fight climate change through new energy-efficient product offerings and through lower emissions in our operations,”

“Our 2030 goals will drive our company to be a positive catalyst for societal change in our areas of expertise, including healthy buildings and the cold chain, as well as in the communities in which we operate around the world,” said Carrier president and CEO Dave Gitlin.
