Inherited from Sanofi

Genzyme Corporation, Inc., headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for recent years.

However, specific reduction targets or achievements for Genzyme itself have not been disclosed. The company is also aligned with the RE100 initiative, aiming for 100% renewable electricity, and is involved in the Race to Zero campaign, which focuses on achieving net-zero emissions. While Genzyme has not published its own emissions figures, it is expected to adhere to the broader climate strategies established by Sanofi, reflecting a commitment to sustainability and climate action within the biopharmaceutical industry.
