Abbott pledge to reduce GHG emissions

12th December 2007

Abbott has pledged to reduce its total U.S. greenhouse gas emissions by two percent on an absolute basis from 2006 to 2011.

Earlier this year, Abbott committed to making its fleet carbon neutral by offering hybrid cars and other greener vehicles, and committing to purchase carbon credits to offset remaining vehicle emissions.

The company released its 2006 Corporate Social Responsibility report in May.
