Working for a Sustainable Amazon
When you work for us, you’re working for a company that cares about the Earth
As part of Amazon’s mission, we have made a commitment to building a sustainable company for our associates, our communities, and our planet. As an associate, you’ll experience first-hand how we are fulfilling multiple high-level efforts from The Climate Pledge — our promise to achieve net-carbon emissions across our business by 2040 and inspire others to reach this new level of ambition.
Our timeline to a more sustainable future
100%
of electricity consumed by Amazon in 2023 was matched with renewable energy sources
100,000
electric vehicles deployed by 2030
Net-zero
carbon emissions by 2040, 10 years ahead of the Paris Climate Agreement
A commitment to sustainability starts at the workplace
We have already made significant headway in creating a net-zero carbon future. This is only possible when we ensure our associates have a safe and healthy environment to work.
Energy-Efficient Facilities
In addition to reducing water and fuel usage, we are minimizing energy use across all operations. Our facilities feature state-of-the-art technology and efficient building practices, with many of our warehouses powered by on-site solar.
Amazon Sustainability Ambassadors
We value the input of our associates. That’s why we have Sustainability Ambassadors, where more than 9,000 Amazonians have joined together to expand the efforts to reduce our environmental impacts. One example of this initiative comes from an ambassador team in Poland, where members redesigned the waste segregation process in their fulfillment center, improving waste recycling rates by more than 90%.
Expanding our environmental efforts
As an associate, you’d experience our ecological transformation in real-time. With electric delivery vehicles, improved packaging, our services are becoming more sustainable to improve the future of our communities.
Ground Transportation
In 2021, we rolled out the first of our custom electric delivery vehicles in Los Angeles, and plan to have 100,000 vehicles deployed by 2030. Our Delivery Stations will be working with these vehicles and ensuring our packages make it to our customers safely, quickly and in an environmentally-friendly way.
