Whirlpool Corporation released its 2025 Corporate Responsibility Impact Report, detailing progress on its sustainability goals across its product innovation, operational performance and value chain initiatives. The company also introduced updated near-term greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets for 2030 and a new long-term milestone for 2050, validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). These targets reflect continued gains in appliance efficiency and operational emissions reduction and reinforce Whirlpool Corporation’s commitment to net zero.

“Sustainability remains core to our company’s future,” said Marc Bitzer, chairman and CEO of Whirlpool Corporation. “In 2025, we made meaningful progress lowering emissions across our operations and delivering innovative, efficient products that help families save money and use less energy and water every day. Our work reflects our belief that product performance, affordability and sustainability are fundamentally connected, and that belief drives us to continuously improve and create better products for our customers.”

In 2025, Whirlpool Corporation made notable achievements toward its sustainability goals, including:

• Reducing scope 1 and 2 market-based emissions by 6% compared to 2024 and by 57% since 2021
• Matching 80% of the electricity consumption across their global operational footprint with renewable energy sources
• Launching 100+ products globally, further optimizing efficiency across its product portfolio
• Developing a certified refurbished pilot in the U.S.
• Building on its 27-year relationship with Habitat for Humanity to help build 50 net-zero-energy-ready homes by the end of 2026

Whirlpool Corporation plans to build on this momentum with new goals, all from a 2021 base year:

• Reducing operational emissions (Scope 1 and 2) by 65% by 2030
• Reducing emissions from the use of sold products (Scope 3, Category 11) by 25% by 2030
• Reducing Scope 1 and 2 emissions and key Scope 3 emissions by 90% by 2050; Scope 3 includes Category 11 (Use of Sold Products) and Category 1 (Purchased Goods and Services)

“We remain firmly committed to continued progress in emissions reductions,” said Beat Stocker, senior director of global sustainability at Whirlpool Corporation. “Our updated, independently validated targets align with the latest science and build on our progress to enable practical, business-balanced emissions reductions across our operations, products and supply chain.”

Whirlpool Corporation’s updated targets are supported by ongoing investments in product innovation and efficiency, operational efficiency including renewable energy projects and supplier engagement. The company will continue to share progress through its annual corporate responsibility reporting. The 2025 Corporate Responsibility Impact Report is available to view and download here.

Whirlpool Corporation has a long track record of corporate responsibility leadership. In 2003, the company became the world’s first appliance manufacturer to set a global greenhouse gas reduction target. That legacy continues with today’s updated targets, which establish a 2021 base year that reflects the company’s evolving footprint and provides a clear, credible roadmap for continued reductions across operations, products and the value chain. More information on the company’s approach can be found on their Corporate Responsibility Resource Center.

WOONSOCKET, R.I. — CVS Health® (NYSE: CVS) in collaboration with Elmington Capital and Cul2vate recently announced a further investment of $120,000 in Cul2vate’s Roots and Roofs initiative, a program designed to connect affordable, stable housing with food security and workforce development in Nashville, Tennessee.

This latest commitment builds on CVS Health’s initial investment in the development of 101 Factory, an affordable housing property that supports individuals and families earning up to 30% to 70% of Area Median Income. Now, CVS Health is expanding on its investment to help ensure residents of 101 Factory and surrounding communities have access to fresh food, workforce training, and the holistic support they need to live healthier lives and reach their full potential.

The Roots and Roofs initiative, powered by Cul2vate, will deliver:

• Food distribution via The Ark: Healthy food boxes delivered to residents identified through surveys and signups, in partnership with The Ark in Pegram, Tennessee.
• Pop-up farmers markets: Seasonal markets at 101 Factory offering farm-grown produce, simple recipes, and nutrition education.
• You-Pick Farm Day: A summer 2026 event where residents are introduced to the farm, engage in hands-on activities, and fill their own boxes with hand-picked produce at Cul2vate’s Buxahatchee Farm.
• Workforce and life transformation: Training and mentorship for individuals overcoming barriers such as homelessness or incarceration, with employment opportunities on the farm and beyond.
• Workforce collaboration with CVS Health: Integration with CVS Health’s Career Skills Lab and Tennessee Department of Labor programs to support pre-apprenticeship and reentry pathways.

This collaboration further demonstrates CVS Health’s commitment to supporting communities across Tennessee. To date, CVS Health has invested more than $36 million in affordable housing across the state, helping to create, preserve and renovate over 2,700 housing units.

“Access to safe, high-quality affordable housing and food stability go hand in hand to impact an individual’s overall health and are essential building blocks in fostering a healthy community,” said Keli Savage, Head of Impact Investments at CVS Health. “This initiative is about more than funding; it’s about showing up, listening, and helping create lasting change where it’s needed most. Through our continued collaboration with Cul2vate, Elmington Capital and local organizations, we’re helping to build a foundation for healthier lives and stronger futures.”

Joey Lankford, Executive Director of Cul2vate said, “I’m excited about this partnership specifically because it allows us to connect the dots with the housing, food and education components of our ministry. It gives us a base for connecting local agriculture production and quality food with affordable housing and employment to create a fundamental holistic way to serve our neighbors in need.”
