LEHIGH VALLEY, Pa., June 7, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Air Products (NYSE:APD) published its 2021 Sustainability Report today detailing the Company's sustainability goals, achievements and showcasing how its industrial gases and expertise help customers reduce their environmental impact. The report also provides stakeholders with economic, environmental and social performance data, in accordance with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) standards "Core" option.
"Put simply, sustainability is our growth strategy at Air Products. Sustainability creates our growth opportunities, and our growth opportunities support our sustainability goals and focus," said Seifi Ghasemi, Air Products' Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Throughout 2020, the world has faced unparalleled challenges from the COVID-19 pandemic. I am extremely proud of the work of our talented and committed team at Air Products for working tirelessly to safely operate our more than 750 production facilities around the world to supply customers with essential industrial gases and execute global megaprojects that are enabling a transition to a cleaner energy future."
The Sustainability Report highlights Air Products' "Third by '30" goal to reduce its carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions intensity (kg CO2/MM BTU) by one-third by 2030 from a 2015 baseline. This year's report also continues Air Products' "Grow, Conserve, and Care" sustainability framework and covers important sustainability priorities based on feedback from key stakeholders.
That strategy has produced positive results, as Air Products achieved many of its 2020 sustainability goals, established in 2016. Below are a few highlights and results of the "Grow, Conserve and Care" focus:
The Sustainability Report also cites several important recognitions received by the Company.
