CDW, a US-based computer and related services company, reported total greenhouse gas emissions of approximately 4.88 billion kg CO2e in 2024. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 2.5 million kg CO2e, market-based Scope 2 emissions of approximately 10.5 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions of around 4.86 billion kg CO2e. This represents a decrease from 2023, where total emissions were approximately 5.59 billion kg CO2e.

CDW has committed to several climate targets:

• Net Zero Target: CDW Limited aims to achieve Net Zero emissions by 2040.
• Near-Term Absolute Reduction Targets (Scopes 1 & 2): The company commits to reducing absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 (operational) GHG emissions by 42% by 2030, using a 2022 base year. These targets are validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) as consistent with a 1.5°C warming scenario.
• Near-Term Absolute Reduction Targets (Scope 3): CDW commits to reducing absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from relevant categories by 25% by 2030, also from a 2022 base year. This target covers capital goods, fuel- and energy-related activities, upstream and downstream transportation and distribution, waste generated in operations, business travel, employee commuting, use of sold products, and end-of-life treatment of sold products.
• Supply Chain Engagement: CDW aims for 80% of its suppliers, by emissions covering purchased goods and services, to have science-based targets by 2028.
