Note 3: This symbol ◊ before an indicator denotes an environmental commitment through Goldman’s 2025 ESG and Net Zero Commitments and ongoing 2020 Operational Commitments. Net Emissions noted as zero represents achievement of the firm’s carbon neutral commitment across operations and business travel. Reductions are from a 2017 baseline, except plastics which are from a 2021 baseline or where otherwise noted. Note 7: Metrics are normalized using Scope 1 & Scope 2 (location) emissions. Note 8: Metric includes only emissions from Scope 1 & Scope 2 (location) from rentable square footage; jet fuel is excluded. Note 9: The firm has diverted 100% business waste from landfill where alternative disposal methods exist. Currently no alternatives exist in Hong Kong, China, Australia, New Zealand, and parts of India. Note 10: The firm began tracking refurbished material as separate from recycled material in 2019. Historical data points may be adjusted to reflect new information and/or changes to protocols.
