Expeditors has set ambitious reduction targets, aiming to decrease Scope 1 emissions per square foot from mobile equipment by 20% by the end of 2025, primarily through the transition to electric forklifts, which would result in approximately 95% of their forklifts being electric. Additionally, they plan to reduce Scope 2 emissions per square foot by 15% by the same deadline. These targets are based on a 2022 baseline. The company is committed to reducing its Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions to near zero by the middle of this decade, with a specific goal of a 30% reduction from 2020 levels by 2030.
