Crown Castle Releases 2020 ESG Report
December 08 2021 - 3:30PM
Crown Castle International Corp. (NYSE: CCI) ("Crown Castle" or
"Company") announced today the release of its 2020 Environmental,
Social & Governance (ESG) Report. This year's report highlights
Crown Castle's commitment to sustainability and corporate
responsibility, with information and progress on the Company’s
carbon neutral goal announced earlier this quarter, an expanded
workforce diversity disclosure, a new diverse supplier spending
goal, and details on the strength and diversity of the Company's
Board of Directors.
"The focus of our ESG journey is to build on our
inherently sustainable business model, as we have done this year by
establishing carbon neutral and supplier diversity spending goals
and by continuing to foster an inclusive culture, where a more
diverse workforce, comprised of unique perspectives, can thrive,"
stated Jay Brown, Crown Castle's Chief Executive Officer. "Since
the recent announcement of our goal to be carbon neutral by 2025 in
Scope 1 and 2 emissions, we have contracted to source more than 60%
of our anticipated 2022 electricity consumption with renewable
energy, putting us well on our way to reaching our goal."
Additionally, the 2020 ESG Report expands upon
the prior two Corporate Sustainability Reports by adding EEO-1 data
and a Task Force on Climate-Related Disclosures (TCFD) index, while
continuing to provide Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) and
Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) disclosures.
