Linde publishes 2022 sustainable development report

During 2022, Linde reduced GHG emissions by 2.8% compared with the previous year

Linde announced it has published its 2022 Sustainable Development Report. The report details Linde’s progress towards its sustainability goals including its “35 by 35” target to reduce absolute greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 35% by 2035, compared to 2021.

During 2022, Linde reduced GHG emissions by 2.8% compared with the previous year. Productivity initiatives saved more than 400 million gallons of water and diverted more than 225 million pounds of waste from landfill. Linde’s products, technologies and services also helped its customers to avoid more than 90 million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent in 2022 – comparable to the annual emissions from 20 million passenger cars, and more than double Linde’s own global emissions.

“Sustainability is a fundamental part of what Linde does every day,” said Sanjiv Lamba, Chief Executive Officer, Linde. "I am particularly proud of the contribution our teams have made to improve our environmental performance, reducing absolute greenhouse gas emissions in 2022 and placing us on track to achieve our '35 by 35' target. We will continue to deliver against our sustainability targets while accelerating the decarbonization of our customers around the world.”
