Ford's Climate Commitments and Emissions Performance

Ford, a US-based motor vehicle manufacturer, is committed to reducing its carbon emissions and achieving climate neutrality.

In 2025, Ford's total reported greenhouse gas emissions were approximately 337.55 billion kg CO2e. This included:

• Scope 1 emissions: Approximately 1.01 billion kg CO2e
• Scope 2 emissions (market-based): Approximately 1.17 billion kg CO2e
• Scope 3 emissions: Approximately 328.42 billion kg CO2e, with the largest categories being "use of sold products" (about 276.09 billion kg CO2e) and "purchased goods and services" (about 41.36 billion kg CO2e).

Looking back, Ford's total emissions were approximately 356.34 billion kg CO2e in 2024 and approximately 372.99 billion kg CO2e in 2022.

Climate Targets and Progress:

Ford has set Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) approved targets:

• Absolute Reduction (Scope 1 & 2): Ford commits to reduce absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions by 76% by 2035, from a 2017 base year.
• Intensity Reduction (Scope 3): Ford also commits to reduce Scope 3 "use of sold products" GHG emissions by 50% per vehicle kilometre by 2035, from a 2019 base year. This category represents the lifetime emissions of vehicles sold.
• Carbon Neutrality: Ford aims to achieve carbon neutrality globally across its vehicles, suppliers, and facilities no later than 2050. Specifically, it targets carbon-neutral EV and EV component manufacturing facilities by 2035.

The company has also made progress on earlier targets, having met its 2025 goal of reducing emissions per vehicle produced by 30% relative to a 2010 baseline, achieving a 32% reduction as early as 2017.
