Note: Latest GHG and revenue data (based on tradingview.com) are used to calculate GHG emissions intensity by sector. The color scale of each bubble depends on the GHG intensity (GHG emissions per 1 million USD revenue). Sectors follow the Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS) that organize companies based on their primary business activities. The 11 sectors are : Information Technology, Health Care, Financials, Consumer Discretionary, Communication Services, Industrials, Consumer Staples, Energy, Utilities, Real Estate, and Materials.

Offsets

Last update for SANOFI by zerotracker.net: Sept. 4, 2024
Planning to use external offset credits Yes
Separate targets for emission reductions and removals No
Conditions on use of offset credits
  • No conditions specified
Plans for carbon dioxide removal (CDR) Not Specified

Additional notes: We’re developing a community-focused carbon offsetting program that will not only avoid or remove emissions from the atmosphere. In selecting projects, we're seeking balance between projects which simultaneously generate a high volume of credits and deliver positive impacts on communities and the environment. This year, we’re focusing on two projects in partnership with EcoAct" "500 hectares of mangroves* will be restored through reforestation efforts, conserving the mangrove ecosystem that’s so essential to coastline protection and fishing resources"
