The Home Depot's Climate Emissions
Despite the Home Depot’s commitment to reduce their carbon emissions, the retailer was the third-largest import climate polluter across all major companies in 2021. The company emitted nearly 420K metric tons of carbon emissions and 8 metric tons of methane.
The Home Depot's Zero-Emission Opportunity
The Home Depot has an opportunity to be a first-mover in shipping decarbonization and show a true commitment to a zero-emission future. Instead of fueling the climate crisis, it’s time for The Home Depot to aim for climate action and commit to adopting zero-emission ocean shipping by 2030. We urge The Home Depot to:
- End Port Pollution Now: Use clean energy and electrification in major ports.
- Abandon Dirty Ships: Stop moving products on fossil-fueled ships.
- Put Zero at the Helm: Commit to 100% zero-emission shipping by 2030.
Take Action

Amazon, IKEA, Target, Walmart and Home Depot are key clientele of shipping liners and have the opportunity to make a change. It’s time for retailers to commit to adopting zero-emission shipping by 2030.
ADD YOUR NAMEWhile peers like Amazon and IKEA have signed on to clean ocean shipping commitments as a first step toward true climate leadership, Home Depot remains quiet. By committing to #ShipItZero this decade, Home Depot leadership would finally put customer health over corporate profits.
