We plan to achieve this goal by reducing landfill emissions 30%, fleet emissions 42%, and reaching 100% renewable electricity at our own facilities by 2030. This target covers 100% of our scope 1 and 2 emissions. Our climate leadership goals focus on investing in the technologies and practices that will reduce our own GHG emissions primarily from our landfills, fleet, and electricity consumption. The scope 1 emissions value in IF-WM-110a.1 represents actual emissions for the reporting year calculated in accordance with The GHG Protocol. Our 2024, scope 1 and 2 emissions were 3% lower than our 2021 base year emissions. More information on our GHG emissions and progress towards our target will be provided in additional sustainability reporting to be released later in 2025. 1 Our 2024 Data Summary provides additional detailed and historical information about our operations and emissions and was used to support the disclosures in this report. | 2024 SASB REPORT GFLENV.COM | 1 Topic/ Metric No. Activity Metric Metric/Information Related to Topic 1 Fleet Fuel Management IF-WM-110b.1 (1) Fleet fuel consumed, (2) Percentage natural gas, (3) Percentage renewable (1) 11,411,091 GJ, (2) 20.2%, (3) 11.3% IF-WM-110b.2 Percentage of alternative fuel vehicles in fleet Percentage of solid waste collection fleet fueled with CNG is 23.0%.
