Sustainability Scorecard

Tracking our sustainability performance to drive continuous improvement and business value

In order to better manage our performance and drive continuous improvement in sustainability, we began tracking our progress in comprehensive energy, climate and carbon footprint performance metrics. In 2009, we began filing our metrics within the framework of the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). Campbell's latest submission can be reviewed in detail at the Carbon Disclosure Project website.

Our scores have steadily improved, and we continue to compile sustainability data, including energy use, water use and solid waste generation and disposal for our worldwide operations. Our Sustainability Scorecard compares the metrics in these categories over the past four fiscal years.
