🎯Goals & Actions
2030 - Reduce 50% of operational emissions relative to 2018
Focus action on accroding to four areas:
- Work from anywhere – have the world's lowest carbon, most sustainable work-from-anywhere flex model, resulting in at least a 50% reduction in absolute emissions relative to business as usual in FY31
- Infrastructure – Salesforce’s vision is to operate on the world's lowest carbon, most sustainable cloud infrastructure. Target a 10% annual carbon-intensity reduction from Infrastructure.
- Business Travel – We build robust programs to change behavior, grow the market for Sustainable Aviation Fuel, electrify ground transportation, and optimize travel booking technology and reporting to empower responsible travel choice
- Supplier Enablement – Salesforce has committed that suppliers representing 60% of our Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions will set their own science-based targets (SBTs) by FY25, and Salesforce is invested in supporting its suppliers in achieving their targets.
