E. I. Du Pont de Nemours and Company, Wilmington, Del., is matching the commitment to its 2015 marketplace goals with updated pledges for continued reductions in its environmental footprint. Note that past reductions have largely been achieved ahead of schedule.
DuPont CEO Charles O. Holliday Jr. cites the following 2015 footprint goals:
DuPont plans to continue pursuing and reporting on its 2010 goals to hold total energy use flat versus 1990 and to source 10% of its energy from renewable sources at a cost competitive with best-available fossil fuels. In 2005, the company's total energy use was 6% below 1990 levels and 5.5% of DuPont's total energy use was from renewable sources.
"Our 2015 goals are DuPont's investment in the future of our business, the future of our customers and the future of people around the world. They are also about the future of our planet-the one we live on today and the better, safer, healthier life for people everywhere."
