Occidental made an announcement in 2020 that it was the first U.S. oil and gas company to achieve zero Ghg emissions from its total emissions inventory, including its use of sold products. These goals include achieving zero Ghg emissions from its operations and energy use before 2040, with an ambition to do so before 2035, and achieving zero emissions from its sold products. Occidental then set several interim targets, including 2025 carbon and methane intensity targets, and established additional interim targets in 2021. Occidental strives to achieve sustainability goals.
