Edgewell Personal Care Company has been recognized as a "Climate Leader in America" by USA Today.
In partnership with market data company, Statista, USA Today published its first-ever ranking of American companies that achieved the greatest reduction in core emissions intensity.
Edgewell says its inclusion on this list represents the company's work toward being a part of a world in which caring for ourselves is balanced with caring for our shared planet and society.
Amy Knight, vice president of global sustainability at Edgewell, comments:
"Being recognized as one of USA Today's 'America's Climate Leaders' in 2023 is a tremendous honor and speaks to the incredible accomplishments from our teams all around the world. It is a testament to the progress we are making against our Sustainable Care 2030 commitments and doing our part in creating a more sustainable future by decarbonizing our business over time, operating responsibly and acting with intention."

USA Today identified companies based on progress in reducing their Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emission intensity between 2019 and 2021. Emission intensity is measured by the amount of greenhouse gases a company produces relative to its revenue, making comparisons between different-sized enterprises possible.
All those included on the list are U.S. headquartered companies with a minimum revenue of $50 million in 2021. Additionally, those identified are within specific lines of business such as automotive, consumer goods, energy, finance, retail, software and transportation.
