2024 Sustainability Report: Reducing Greenhouse Gas Emissions

We’ve hit a major climate milestone!

In 2024, Republic Services reached a 20% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions compared to our 2017 baseline. That’s real progress on the path to our 2030 goal of a 35% reduction—and it’s all thanks to the work happening across our business every day.

From adding electric collection trucks to enhancing landfill gas systems, and keeping food and yard waste out of landfills, every initiative adds up to meaningful impact.

This is what climate leadership looks like, and we’re proud to be leading the way. Every one of us plays a role in building a more sustainable world.

We’ll be sharing more highlights from the 2024 Sustainability Report in the coming weeks, so keep an eye out for the next post in this series.
