Success and Scale Bring Broad Responsibility
As an organization serving global communities, we have a broad responsibility to mitigate the impacts of our business, while helping to address the environmental and social challenges we collectively face.
At Amazon, we combine data and science with passion and invention to drive everything we do. We set big goals and work backwards to achieve them. We pledge to apply that same tenacity to how we address some of the world’s biggest environmental and societal challenges, so we can help make every day better for our customers, our employees, our communities, and our planet.

We're on track to reach net-zero carbon emissions by 2040 and matched 100% of the electricity consumed across our operations with renewable energy sources in 2023, achieving this goal seven years ahead of schedule. We have more than 24,000 electric vehicles and, in 2023, they delivered 680 million packages. Our $100 million fund for nature-based solutions finances community-focused projects to mitigate the impacts of climate change, enhance biodiversity, and add green space to urban areas.
