Recognized for its Reduction in Scope 1 and 2 Greenhouse Gas Emissions

SHELTON, Conn., May 24, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Edgewell Personal Care Company (NYSE: EPC) has been recognized as a Climate Leader in America by USA Today. In partnership with market data company, Statista, USA Today published its first-ever ranking of American companies that achieved the greatest reduction in core emissions intensity.

The selection was measured by identifying companies based on progress in reducing their Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emission intensity between 2019 and 2021. Emission intensity is measured by the amount of greenhouse gases a company produces relative to its revenue, making comparisons between different-sized enterprises possible.

It is a testament to the progress we are making against our Sustainable Care 2030 commitments and doing our part in creating a more sustainable future by decarbonizing our business over time, operating responsibly and acting with intention."

All those included on the list are U.S. headquartered companies with a minimum revenue of $50 million in 2021. Additionally, those identified are within specific lines of business such as automotive, consumer goods, energy, finance, retail, software and transportation.
