We've pledged to reduce our absolute total greenhouse gas
emissions by 5 percent by 2015 - a challenging but necessary goal -
even as we are projected to grow our business.
Building on our demonstrated commitment to address climate
change, we're proud to announce that we've developed our first goal
to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions on an absolute basis. Our
desire to develop a global climate change management strategy is
based on an understanding of the science of climate change and an
awareness of the changing regulatory environment surrounding
GHGs.
Sustainability 2015 Goal: Reduce global
Kimberly-Clark absolute GHG emissions by 5 percent from 2010 level
by 2015.
Reaching our Sustainability 2015 goals
Our business and facility managers participated in setting this
goal and are responsible for achieving it. The Global
Sustainability Team helps business units implement, measure and
report their progress to management.
