Pursue environmental stewardship and sustainability
FedEx recognizes our activities have an impact on the environment. The long-term health of our business is connected to the health of our planet. We are committed to conducting business activities responsibly and sustainably. We comply with national, state, and local laws where we operate that regulate air or surface vehicle emissions, water quality, solid and hazardous waste disposal, and the prevention of spills or releases.
We strive to continually improve our environmental management. As part of our ongoing efforts to promote sustainability, we evaluate the environmental impacts of FedEx operations and packaging and reduce them where possible. We integrate environmental considerations into daily operations and business decision-making processes. This includes sourcing and implementing solutions that will help reduce our environmental footprint.
We have an ambitious goal to achieve carbon neutral operations globally by 2040. Our path to carbon neutral operations includes investing in vehicle electrification, sustainable fuels, fuel conservation, aircraft modernization, and renewable energy for our facilities.
Demonstrate FedEx cares
FedEx Cares focuses on simultaneously meeting social and business goals. We make our most significant investments in areas where we can address material issues and apply our unique business capabilities. FedEx Cares has three major giving portfolios: Delivering for Good, Global Entrepreneurship, and Sustainable Logistics. Common to these three is our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion, and to team member volunteerism.
- Delivering for good — We lend our global network and logistics expertise to nonprofits with mission-critical needs and to communities impacted by crises and natural disasters.
- Global entrepreneurship — Our work helps strengthen small businesses owned by women and people of color by connecting them to resources, training, and capital.
- Sustainable logistics — Our commitment to accelerating innovations like carbon capture and electric vehicles reduces the environmental impact of the logistics industry.
- Diversity, equity, and inclusion — Everything we do supports our pursuit to create more equitable and just communities.
- Volunteering — Team members volunteer their time and expertise to enhance our impact and deepen our relationships in the community.
