HP has a long-standing history of climate action. Our ambitious goals are designed to combat climate change by focusing on GHG emissions, circularity, and forests. We use science-based targets to drive progress across our value chain, consistent with emission levels required to limit global warming to 1.5°C. Our goal is to reach net zero GHG emissions across our value chain by 2040.
Through HP’s five climate action strategic drivers—print and compute as a service, sustainable materials, supply chain decarbonization, energy efficiency, and forest investments—we aim to reduce GHG emissions and resource consumption, drive innovation, and transform our design and business models.
By shifting toward circular design, and creating products with repair and reuse in mind, we are working to increase value for customers while reducing environmental impacts. We invest in reused, recycled, and sustainably harvested materials and develop innovative ways to repurpose waste materials.
To catalyze decarbonization within our supply chain, we work with suppliers to set science-based targets, implement energy management systems to increase efficiency, and utilize renewable electricity.
To help address deforestation, HP-brand paper and paper-based packaging for home and office printers and supplies, PCs, and displays1 are made from recycled or certified sources. Beyond our own sourcing, we are taking action to protect, manage, and restore forests by addressing every page printed on HP printers. Through the HP Sustainable Forests Collaborative with partners, we work to counteract deforestation for the fiber of non-HP paper used in HP printing products and services.
HP has achieved triple “A” scores from CDP for transparency and action on climate, forests, and water security for five consecutive years and has also been recognized as a CDP Supplier Engagement Leader. To drive change within and beyond our industry, we join with other leaders in emissions-reduction efforts and goal setting, including through the Clean Energy Buyers Association, RE100, EV100, the Clean Energy Buyers Association, RE100, EV100, Center for Climate and Energy Solutions’ Business Environmental Leadership Council, CDP Supply Chain, Business Ambition for 1.5°C and WWF Climate Business Network.
