90+ Companies to Slash Emissions by 50% Within Decade
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) announced a commitment from more than 90 companies and organizations to reduce their carbon emissions by 50% by 2030 through DOE’s Better Climate Challenge.

This national public-private partnership calls on organizations across the country to set bold, portfolio-wide greenhouse gas reduction targets and share their innovative solutions and best practices with partners and across industries.

DOE’s Better Climate Challenge builds on more than a decade of experience working with partners to set portfolio wide goals and to address barriers to greater energy efficiency though the Better Buildings Initiative.

It's Time to Prioritize Insulation to Reduce Emissions

“Companies across America are joining arms to lead the zero-carbon transition through smart, strategic climate solutions that slash building and factory emissions and significantly cut costs.”

—U.S. Secretary of Energy Jennifer M. Granholm
