Sector Benchmark

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.

Becton Dickinson belongs to the sector Health Care.

Science-based Targets (SBTI)

Date Published / Updated :01/05/2024

Near-term Long-Term Net Zero Standard
Targets Set : 1.5°C by FY2030 Targets Set : 1.5°C by FY2050 Yes by FY2050
Becton Dickinson is a member of the Business Ambition for 1.5 campaign (link here )

Overall Net-Zero Target:
Becton, Dickinson & Company commits to reach net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across the value chain by FY2050.
Near-Term Targets:
Becton Dickinson & Company commits to reduce absolute scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions 50% by 2030 from a 2019 base year. Becton Dickinson & Company also commits that 75% of its suppliers and customers by emissions covering purchased goods and services, capital goods, upstream transportation and distribution, use of sold products and end- of-life treatment of sold products, will have science-based targets by 2028.
Long-Term Targets:
Becton Dickinson & Company commits to reduce absolute scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions 90% by 2050 from a 2019 base year. Becton Dickinson & Company commits to reduce scope 3 GHG emissions 97% per unit of sold product by 2050 from a 2021 base year.

Offsets

Last update for Becton Dickinson by zerotracker.net: Oct. 20, 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: Credits: "In previous years, we have purchased additional unbundled Renewable Energy Credits (RECs) to offset greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions at our U.S. facilities. However, due to the significant increase in the market price for RECs in FY 2020, we purchased and retired nearly 150,000 metric tonnes CO2e of carbon offsets." pg. 95 Their 2023 report discusses 42% of electric power consumption is from renewable energy, and they break down what the consumption is fro renewble energy credits vs onsite renewable power, but the target is combined. p116 https://www.bd.com/content/dam/bd-assets/bd-com/en-us/document/policy/ethics-and-compliance/report/BD_2023_Corporate_Sustainability_report.pdf
