Honda Releases 2021 North American Environmental Report
Honda today released its environmental activities data for North America covering the fiscal year ending March 31, 2021 (FY 2021). This marks the 17th consecutive year that Honda has released detailed environmental impact data for its North American operations.
The data includes water use, greenhouse gas emissions, and waste and air emissions, which decreased as a result of reduced manufacturing due to COVID-19 and supply chain constraints.
The company managed to recycle or reuse 92% of the waste from its manufacturing facilities during the reporting period, and over the same period, 99% of the waste from its 12 U.S. parts warehousing and distribution centers were recycled.
The report also includes data on the use of Honda and Acura products in the region:
In April 2021, Honda set a goal for achieving carbon neutrality for all products and corporate activities by 2050, including a commitment to supply its operations with 100% clean energy.
Additional information on Honda's environmental initiatives in the region can be found on the Honda Corporate Social Responsibility website. Information on Honda's environmental performance outside of North America can be found in Honda Motor Company's Sustainability Report.
