Climate Action Plan

Doing the right thing is a driving force for our continuous improvement and is the foundation of our
Climate Action Plan.

We are committed, in partnership with our global stakeholders, to doing our part to avoid catastrophic climate change. This is essential to our business and the right thing to do. Our Climate Action Plan is our roadmap to lowering carbon dioxide-equivalent (CO2e) emissions.

Our Holistic Approach

Our Sustainability Principles:
  • For Costco to thrive, the world needs to thrive. We are committed to doing our part to help.
  • We focus on issues related to our business and where we can contribute to real, results-driven positive impact.
  • We do not have all of the answers, are learning as we go and seek continuous improvement.

Our Foundational Beliefs:
  • The subjects we address are multifaceted, as evidenced by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) we have adopted (as explained in our Sustainability Commitment introduction).
  • Our approach must encompass worldwide operations and global supply chains.
  • We must use evidence-based best practices and take actions rooted in science.
