This comprised: * **Scope 1:** Approximately 178.77 million kg CO2e. * **Scope 2 (Market-Based):** Approximately 202.51 million kg CO2e. * **Scope 3:** Approximately 6.69 billion kg CO2e, with purchased goods and services and end-of-life treatment of sold products being the largest contributing categories. In 2024, total global emissions were approximately 6.45 billion kg CO2e, broken down as: * **Scope 1:** Approximately 181.95 million kg CO2e. * **Scope 2 (Market-Based):** Approximately 229.86 million kg CO2e. * **Scope 3:** Approximately 6.04 billion kg CO2e. The company has been tracking its emissions since at least 2008, with a significant decrease in Scope 1 and 2 emissions intensity relative to the cost of products sold (COPS). **Climate Commitments and Reduction Targets:** BD has established several ambitious climate targets: * **Net Zero:** The company aims to reach net zero GHG emissions across its entire value chain by Fiscal Year 2050. * **Absolute Emission Reductions:** * BD commits to reducing absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 50% by 2030, from a 2019 baseline. * A longer-term goal is to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 90% by 2050, also from a 2019 baseline. * **Scope 3 Emission Reduction:** BD is working to reduce Scope 3 GHG emissions by 97% per unit of sold product by 2050, using a 2021 baseline. * **Science-Based Targets:** BD's targets are aligned with a 1.5°C global emissions reduction pathway, as validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). * **Supplier Engagement:** The company is committed to ensuring that 75% of its suppliers and customers (by emissions covering key categories like purchased goods, capital goods, and use of sold products) have science-based targets by 2028. These commitments demonstrate BD's dedication to decarbonisation and sustainable operations across its global footprint.
