Achieving carbon neutrality
Moody's achieved its goal in 2020 of offsetting historical carbon emissions from its operations, business travel and employee commuting from the time the company became public in September 2000. In addition, the Company intends to reach net-zero emissions by 2050, consistent with its commitment to the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) Business Ambition for 1.5°C.
Procuring renewable energy

Advancing its science-based targets
In 2020, Moody’s exceeded its 50% reduction target in Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 2030, largely through the procurement of renewable electricity. The Company also exceeded its 15% reduction target in Scope 3 GHG emissions by 2025 from fuel and energy-related activities, business travel and employee commuting. Moody’s will continue to work towards achieving its target reductions by the designated year.
