CSX improved to the highest possible A rating for leadership in corporate sustainability by CDP, an independent global nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing sustainable business practices.
For the eighth consecutive year, CSX achieved "leadership" status in CDP's annual rankings, which scored 5,800 companies' efforts to address climate change. This year, CSX improved to the A List rating for its actions to cut emissions, mitigate climate risks and help increase corporate transparency, CSX officials said in a press release.
CSX was the top U.S.-based Class I in this year's ranking, they said.
CDP drives companies and governments to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions, safeguard water resources and protect forests. Over 9,600 companies with over 50 percent of global market capitalization disclosed environmental data through CDP in 2020.
"CSX is proud to be recognized by CDP for our sustainable business practices," said Nathan Goldman, executive vice president and chief legal officer. "In addition to contributing to greenhouse gas reductions and addressing climate change, CSX's commitment to advance environmental sustainability supports our company's business strategy."
