Common questions about this slide and the underlying presentation content.
The report comprehensively covers five major areas: Planet (climate and energy, circularity, water management, biodiversity), Our People (culture, engagement, diversity, health and safety), Integrity (corporate governance, ethics, cybersecurity, product safety), Responsible Sourcing (supplier engagement, supply chain resilience), and Reporting (GRI, SASB, TCFD indices and detailed sustainability data tables).
The report is 111 pages in a professional landscape PDF format, featuring rich infographics, data visualizations, employee photography, and comprehensive data tables with year-over-year comparisons spanning fiscal years 2021-2024.
Emerson has set SBTi-approved targets including Net Zero Operations by 2030 (90% Scope 1+2 reduction from 2021), Zero Waste to Landfill by 2032 (90% diversion), Net Zero Value Chain by 2045 (90% Scope 1+2+3 reduction), a 10% water reduction goal by 2032, and 100% renewable electricity procurement by 2030.
The report includes full indices for GRI (Global Reporting Initiative), SASB (Sustainability Accounting Standards Board), TCFD (Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures), and maps initiatives to 12 UN Sustainable Development Goals. The GHG data has received limited assurance from ERM CVS.
Absolutely. This report serves as an excellent benchmark for structuring corporate ESG disclosures, including how to organize sections by pillar (Planet, People, Integrity, Sourcing), present emissions data with infographics, format GRI/SASB/TCFD indices, and integrate employee stories and case studies throughout.
Key highlights include a 48% absolute reduction in Scope 1+2 emissions from 2021, 57% renewable electricity globally, 79.2% employee engagement score with 89% survey participation, a 0.30 total recordable injury rate, 95% ethics training completion, and a 13% reduction in total Scope 3 emissions.
Through its Greening By Emerson framework, the company supports customers via four strategic pillars: Energy Source Decarbonization, Energy and Emissions Management, Electrification and Grid Systems, and Circularity and Waste Reduction. Real-world examples include solar farm automation in New Zealand, offshore hydrogen in the Netherlands, carbon capture with ConocoPhillips, and smart grid solutions.
The report features diverse visualization types including donut/pie charts for emissions and waste breakdowns, stacked bar charts for emissions trends, timeline infographics for goal roadmaps, organizational hierarchy diagrams, world maps for regional data, pyramid charts for workforce demographics, and illustrated cityscape infographics for GHG emissions overview.
