CN has been identified as a global leader for its actions and strategies in response to climate change and has been awarded a position on the Climate A List by CDP, the international not-for-profit that drives sustainable economies.
“We are pleased to be recognized by the CDP for the eighth straight year and proud of CN’s continued leadership on climate change action. Operating efficiently has been the hallmark of CN’s success and in the last decade we’ve reduced our rail locomotive carbon emission intensity by 19 per cent and remain approximately 15 per cent more fuel efficient than the industry average. We believe that rail can be an integral part of the climate change solution offering both environmental and economic advantages,” Luc Jobin, CN president and chief executive officer, said.
Thousands of companies submit annual climate disclosures to CDP for independent assessment against its scoring methodology. 193 companies appear on the A List in recognition of actions taken to reduce emissions and mitigate climate change in the past reporting year.
The Climate A List was released in CDP’s Out of the starting blocks: Tracking progress on corporate climate action report which establishes the baseline for corporate climate action.
