Occidental was the first U.S. oil and gas company to set goals that would result in zero Ghg emissions for its total emissions inventory, including the use of its sold products. These goals included achieving zero Ghg emissions from operations and energy use before 2040 with an ambition to do so before 2035 and from using its sold products before 2050. Occidental also set interim targets for sustainability, including carbon and methane intensity targets, and endorsed the World Bank's program for zero routine flaring by 2030.
