Showcasing how our technologies, business model and role as a driver of technology transformation can support a transition towards a more sustainable future.
Qualcomm believes that environmental sustainability is a societal imperative.
The conservation and protection of natural resources and global ecosystems yields significant social and environmental benefits for present and future generations. These benefits require collective action and leadership from corporate citizens. We showcase this belief by deploying ambitious efforts to reduce our own footprint, collaborating across our value chain to address emissions and developing technologies that positively contribute to a transition towards a more sustainable future.
We have set the following three long-term greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction goals, which supplement our Company’s existing 2025 GHG reduction strategy:
- To reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 50% by 2030 from 2020 base year.
- To reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 25% by 2030 from 2020 base year.
- To reach net-zero global emissions for Scopes 1, 2 and 3 by 2040.
Our technologies also offer innovative ways to maximize the performance of devices, while reducing the amount of energy they use. We focus on power efficiency – not just to improve performance but to help lessen the environmental impact of today’s technologies.
In relation to climate change and environmental sustainability, we follow the same approach as other relevant and key public policy topics: We engage in policy discussions with governments, organizations and industries around the world to advocate for policies that promote innovation, protect and foster new ideas in mobile communication and accelerate the deployment of 5G. We are committed to helping policymakers at all levels understand our business model and role as an ecosystem enabler. This includes showcasing how our technologies, our business model and our role as a driver of technology transformation can support communities, governments and other stakeholders in a transition towards a more sustainable future.
