Danaher Corporation has committed to several climate targets. In September 2022, Danaher announced a goal to reduce its absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 50.4% by 2032, using 2021 as the baseline year. This target aligns with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) goal of limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius. Additionally, the company submitted science-based GHG emission reduction targets to the SBTi in early 2026, including a long-term target to achieve net-zero value chain emissions by no later than 2050. Danaher had previously committed to a 15% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions (on a normalized basis) over the five-year period from 2020-2024.
