Nike is committed to achieving zero carbon emissions across its entire value chain by 2050, adopting renewable energy, developing sustainable product design, improving water conservation and innovating in technology to reach this goal.

"One of the greatest strides we’ve made in the past 10 years has been to embed sustainability across the entire organisation," says John Donahoe, CEO of Nike.

"It no longer sits with one team or in one pocket of the organisation, it’s truly part of everyone’s job with clear targets and direction."

The methodology

Using a scoring method (1-10, with a maximum total score of 40), the Top 250 Sustainability Companies evaluates the performance of each company in four core areas – net zero goals, ESG ratings, DE&I efforts and industry impact.

Those on this list show a strong commitment to achieving net zero emissions with clear and ambitious targets, have a high ESG rating and comprehensive DE&I programme, are leading industry transformation with innovative solutions and are setting benchmarks for sustainable and responsible practices.

The Top 250 Sustainability Companies highlights Sustainability Magazine’s dedication to showcasing transparency, accountability and excellence in sustainability. The supplement represents a diverse range of sectors within the industry.
