The U.S. waste and recycling industry has seen a notable shift in the level of disclosure and aspirations for its sustainability targets in recent years. The focus has only increased amid growing attention on landfill methane’s contribution to climate change. This has been driven in part by investor and customer interest in environmental, social and governance metrics, as well as federal and state regulatory requirements.
Since 2020, Waste Dive has maintained a tracker of key targets, data and focus areas among companies that disclose specific greenhouse gas emissions. This current list is centered on solid waste or environmental services companies. It will be updated annually with new entries as future reports are released. You can find the archived version of this tracker, which includes information on climate risk disclosures, here.

Reduce emissions to 12% below a 2022 baseline by 2030.
Baseline: 640.8K MT CO2e in 2022, updated from the original 1.08M MT CO2e baseline from 2010.
Casella said it updated its emissions reduction goal to better “align with our industry peers” by adopting the Solid Waste Industry for Climate Solutions model for quantifying greenhouse gas emissions from landfills. Casella’s previous goal was to reduce scope 1 and 2 emissions 40% by 2030.
The new measurement is meant to take into account surface emission monitoring and wellfield data. “Rather than recalculating our emissions dating back to 2010, we are setting our baseline to 2022 and continuing toward our 2030 target,” it said.
2024 status: Casella’s 2023 GHG emissions were down 32% from the original 2010 baseline and down 4% from the new 2022 baseline.
Reduce gigajoules of fuel consumed, per ton of material collected, 20% by 2030.
Baseline: 0.495 GJ per ton in 2019
2024 status: Casella consumed0.437 GJ in 2023, an 11.7% reduction from baseline. Investments in truck automation and technology are expected to help reduce consumption further, as well as efforts to pilot alternative fuel vehicles and test two electric vehicles.
Reduce, reuse or recycle 2 million tons of material annually by 2030
Baseline: Compared with 1.05 million tons recyced in 2019.
Reduce scope 1 and 2 emissions by 50% globally by 2032 and reach net zero by 2050
Baseline: Parent company Veolia Group first reported its global emissions in 2019. Its scope 1 emissions that year were 26.3 million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent and its scope 2 emissions were 5.2 million metric tons of CO2e. This year’s VNA report served as a baseline for North American emissions.
2023 update: Veolia Group reported its scope 1 emissions were 27.9 metric tons of CO2e and its scope 2 emissions were 5.7 metric tons of CO2e. This is a goal set by the parent company — Veolia North America does not have its own, separate emissions target.
Avoid 18 million metric tons of CO2e in 2027 as part of GreenUp strategy
Baseline: 430 kilotons of CO2e avoided in 2023
2023 update: The GreenUp strategy is Veolia’s growth plan for 2024 through 2027. It includes sustainability goals and billions in planned investment in North American capacity, including renewable energy projects like converting biowaste to energy.
Treat 10 million metric tons of hazardous waste and pollutants in 2027 as part of GreenUp strategy
Baseline: 1,888,259 metric tons of hazardous waste processed in 2023
2023 update: VNA is working to complete an update of its Gum Springs hazardous waste incineration facility in Arkansas, which it expects will increase hazardous waste destruction capacity.
Save 400 billion gallons of freshwater in 2027 as part of GreenUp strategy
Baseline: 368,618,813,387 gallons of wastewater treated in 2023
2023 update: VNA said it would achieve this goal through reuse of treated wastewater, treatment for pollutants like PFAS or microplastics, ammonia-based aeration control in wastewater treatment and production of drinking water
Increase percentage of alternative fuel vehicles in light-duty fleet to more than 10% by 2030
Baseline: Less than 1% in 2019
2023 update: Less than 1%, did not report a specific number of vehicles
Increase recovery of key materials by 25% on a combined basis by 2030, to 1.7 million metric tons
Baseline: 1.4 million metric tons in 2019
2023 update: Nearly 1.7 million metric tons of materials recycled, up from 1.63 million the previous year
Increase the use of renewable energy at facilities including landfill gas, solar, and other sources generated at company facilities to greater than 3,000 megawatt-hours annually by 2030
Baseline: 2,018 MWh annually in 2019
2023 update: 2,673 MWh annually, up from the previous year thanks to new solar installations
Increase the percentage of biosolids processed for beneficial use rather than landfilling
Synagro reported more than 80% of the biosolids, organics and wastewater residuals it managed in 2023 were reused for what the company described as a beneficial purpose, including composting and land application. That’s roughly the same proportion the company reported in 2022. It reported managing more than 16 million tons of those materials in 2023.
Increase the amount of renewable energy used in operations, including biogas
Synagro is planning a series of measures to identify opportunities to boost renewable energy usage, including audits at certain facilities and solar installation at composting sites. The company reported consuming about 375,000 gigajoules of biogas, more than 10% of its energy usage, at seven sites.
Obtain third-party verification of carbon footprint
Synagro achieved this goal by partnering with third-party verifier ERM CVS. It also developed an internal carbon accounting team, and new data collection and processes.
Develop a carbon reduction roadmap
The company developed and published its carbon reduction roadmap for the sustainability report, which includes its diversion and energy goals. Synagro has not set target years in the roadmap.
Powering facilities with 100% renewable or carbon-free electricity by 2028
2023 status: Recology ran its facilities on 90% renewable or carbon-free electricity, unchanged from the prior year.
Using 75% of collected landfill gas to generate renewable energy by 2028
2023 status: Recology used 39% of the landfill gas it generated to produce renewable electricity, down from 50% the prior year. Recology said the decline was due to system upgrades and increasing gas volumes at its two landfills, but it expects the upgrades to ensure progress in future years.
Powering 90% of vehicle fleet via renewable or alternative fuels
2023 status: Recology achieved this goal predominantly via renewable diesel and renewable natural gas in 2022. It said it is now working to meet California’s Advanced Clean Fleets regulations, which require a transition to zero-emission vehicles.
Reduce absolute scope 1 and scope 2 GHG emissions 42% by 2031
Baseline: 17,158,208 MT CO2e of combined scope 1 and scope 2 emissions in 2021.
2023 status: Reduced direct emissions by 12% from baseline. WM says its facilities are powered with 55% electricity from renewable sources.
Beneficial use for 65% of landfill gas by 2026
2023 status: 43%, down from 45% in 2022 and the 45% baseline. WM says it increased total landfill gas captured by 5% from the previous year and opened one new RNG facility. It also has a goal to generate an additional 25 million mmBtus of RNG by 2026.
Increase “recovery of materials” by 60% to 25M tons by 2030, with interim goal of a 25% increase by 2025
Baseline: 15.34M tons in 2021
2023 status: Recovered 15.24M tons of materials, a 3% increase since 2022. It’s a slight decline (0.6%) from its 2021 baseline, which WM attributes to facilities that were temporarily shut down for upgrades. WM opened or upgraded eight recycling facilities in 2023, along with adding nine organics processing facilities.
Certifications: WM’s emissions target has also been certified by SBTi, in line with the Paris Agreement’s 1.5 degree Celsius global warming limit.
Reduce energy and carbon intensity of business operations 15% between 2019 and 2025.
2023 status: Enviri did not provide a specific percentage update on this metric in its report. The company reported its energy intensity was 1,181 gigajoules per million dollars of revenue and its carbon intensity was 79 metric tons CO2e per million dollars.
Recycle or repurpose more than 75% of waste and by-product material processed annually.
2023 status: The company’s divisions recycled or reused 19 million tons of waste, including a 93% rate for steel slag and a 91% rate for processed waste materials.
Avoid more than 25 million tons of carbon emissions from its recycling and repurposing solutions from 2019 to 2025.
2023 status: No specific update provided. The company said additional priorities for this year include assessing opportunities to procure renewable energy for U.S. facilities and conducting a double materiality assessment of its ESG metrics.
GHG Emissions (MT CO2e):Scope 1 = 13M (including 11.43M from landfills and 1.32M from fleet), scope 2 = 173K, scope 3 = 2.4M
Targets:
Reduce absolute scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions 35% by 2030
Baseline: 15.49M MT CO2e combined scope 1 and scope 2 emissions in 2017
2023 status: Reduced operational emissions by 15% to 13.94M MT CO2e, surpassing interim target of 10% reduction by 2025 two years ahead of schedule.
Increase recovery and circularity of key materials by 40%, or 3.4M tons, on a combined basis by 2030
Baseline: 2.4M tons of key materials recovered in 2017
2023 status: 2.2M tons of key materials recovered in 2023, the second year of declining recovery. Republic attributed this to renovations at several major recycling facilities, among other factors.
Increase biogas sent to beneficial reuse by 50%, or 110.1 standard cubic feet of biogas, by 2030
Baseline: 73.4 billion scf in 2017
2023 status: 71.7 billion scf, the second year of declining reuse. Republic attributed this to development of landfill-gas-to-energy facilities, which it expects will accelerate its progress toward its 2030 goal once in operation.
Certifications: Republic’s emissions reduction goal was approved by SBTi in 2019 under a “well-below 2 degrees Celsius” pathway that’s since been replaced by the authority. Republic has previously said it plans to adhere to the new 1.5 degrees Celsius pathway when it revalidates its goals.
Reduce scope 1 and 2 emissions 45% by 2030, be net zero by 2040
Baseline: 2022 data
2023 status: The company reported having already reduced its combined scope 1 and 2 emissions by 36.3% from its baseline in 2022. It attributes this shift to a transition to “100% renewable fuels powering our off-road, heavy equipment,” which helped bring scope 1 emissions down by about 50%. The company is also investing in cleaner electricity, which it expects will help bring down scope 2 emissions.
The company also reported diverting 1,360,134 tons of material from disposal, the majority of which were organics. GreenWaste says it does not incorporate avoided emissions estimates into its carbon emissions calculations, but estimates that it avoided about 183,000 MT CO2e through its organics processing and composting practices. GreenWaste also said it would “assess” scope 3 emissions in its 2022 report, but those emissions were not quantified in the 2023 report.
Reduce energy and carbon intensity of business operations 15% between 2019 and 2025.
2023 status: From 2019 to 2021, scope 1 and 2 emissions declined about 14%, mainly due to merger and acquisition activity where Enviri divested some businesses it described as “carbon intensive” and acquired several less carbon-intensive businesses. However, in 2022, carbon intensity increased by 15%. Enviri says the uptick is due to “market changes and broader accounting of emissions from business operations.”
Recycle or repurpose more than 75% of waste and by-product material processed annually.
2023 status: Enviri’s divisions recycled, repurposed or reused 35 billion pounds of waste in 2022. Harsco Environmental recycled or reused 87% of slag, while the Clean Earth division recycled or reused 90% of its waste.
Avoid more than 25 million tons of carbon emissions from its recycling and repurposing solutions from 2019 to 2025.
2023 status: In its latest report, Enviri did not calculate an estimated amount of emissions avoided, but said it was assessing several carbon emission reduction efforts such as sourcing renewable energy for business operations and hiring an energy efficiency consulting firm to evaluate Clean Earth’s thermal treatment plants. Clean Earth’s use of natural gas constitutes the largest source of carbon emissions in the division, Enviri said.
In 2023, overall Scope 1 and 2 emissions increased by 4% on an absolute basis compared to 2022. Scope 1 emissions were up by about 6.5% from 25,450 MT CO2e in 2022. Scope 2 emissions decreased 6.9% from the 6,740 MT CO2e reported in 2022.
VLS says its fleet comprises most of its operational emissions. New facility openings and several business acquisitions were other factors that contributed to increased emissions.
VLS did not note specific GHG reduction targets, but says it is considering setting such targets in the future. In 2024, it plans to conduct its first Scope 3 inventory.
The report also mentions several efforts to reduce emissions, including “investigating ways to further optimize our [fleet] logistics” and working with vendors to install solar power arrays at some of its facilities. VLS has already seen some reductions at sites that have reduced electricity purchases, it said.
Since 2020, VLS has converted more than 213,800 tons of waste into fuel. It sees its fuel manufacturing services – including biomass from woodchips and nut shells – as an opportunity to help reduce GHG emissions for customers by diverting materials from the landfill and providing processing capacity closer to customers, reducing transport distances and emissions from fleets. “We continue to diversify the sources and types of fuels we manufacture and tailor those fuels for our facilities to increase capacity and mitigate supply risk for our clients.”
Increase percentage of alternative fuel vehicles in light-duty fleet to more than 10% by 2030

2022 update: 2,097 MWh annually, down slightly from 2,127 MWh the previous year
Regulated waste and compliance services accounted for 78% of Scope 1 and 2 emissions in terms of business activity. By source, 38% came from fleet emissions, while 40% came from regulated waste and compliance services incineration.
Targets:
Net Zero scope 1 and scope 2 GHG emissions by 2050
2022 update:This is a new goal for Stericycle and the first time it has set a greenhouse gas emissions target since the company first reported baseline emissions in its 2021 report. In that 2021 report, the company had set an interim target to track ongoing GHG emissions but did not announce a specific goal. Stericycle aims to achieve net zero scope 1 and 2 emissions for its UK businesses by 2045.
Track Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas intensity in MT CO2e, per U.S. dollar of revenue
2022 update: Stericycle reported a rate of 0.000169, down from 0.000184 reported in 2021. Numbers do not reflect data from Brazilian operations.

2022 update: Stericycle reported a ratio of 11.60, down slightly from 11.64 in 2021. In North America, employees drove 2.3 million miles less than in 2022, which Stericycle says is a reduction of 3,000 MT CO2e, due partly to route optimization and building “strategically located” facilities. Stericycle also plans to roll out more electric vehicles by the end of 2023 in its international fleet. Its global fleet has about 6,100 vehicles of varying sizes.
Track percentage of waste managed with recycling, WTE or an “alternate use.”
2022 update: That amount was 47% in 2022, unchanged from the previous year. Of the incinerated waste that Stericycle managed in 2022, more than 39% in the United States and approximately 64% globally was disposed of via a WTE process.
In 2022, Stericycle managed 1.5 billion pounds of medical waste prior to disposal and shredded and recycled 1 billion pounds of paper. It also says it diverted 101 million pounds of plastic from landfills, mainly by offering reusable sharps and pharmaceutical waste containers over single-use options. In 2022, it also rolled out a new antimicrobial medical waste container in North America constructed with 15% recycled content, and it re-engineered two other types of containers that use 40% less plastic.
Increase the percentage of biosolids processed for beneficial use rather than landfilling
In 2022, the first year of Synagro’s sustainability report, the company reported 80% of biosolids were reused for a beneficial purpose, including composting and land application. It managed 6.5 million tons that year.
Obtain third-party verification of carbon footprint
Synagro worked with Bridge House Advisors to calculate 2022 emissions and emissions avoided as a result of Synagro’s activities
Develop a carbon reduction roadmap
Synagro hired its first Chief Sustainability Officer Kip Cleverley in April 2023. The company’s existing carbon reduction efforts include using biogas at thermal drying facilities and using fleet optimization technology for vehicles
Integrate new technologies to drive circular innovation and improve the positive impact of products
Synagro said it’s partnering with CharTech Solutions to pilot a PFAS destruction tool for biosolids.
IWS reported that while its 2022 emissions increased due to acquisitions, the “total emissions generated per tons of waste collected decreased by 2%.” The majority of these emissions are from the company’s Apex Landfill in Ohio. IWS does not have a specific GHG reduction target, but notes multiple efforts to reduce emissions in its report.
According to the company, it recycled and composted 248,750 tons of material in 2022 and will be expanding capacity with another New Jersey MRF in 2024. The company also notes emissions benefits from a gas-to-energy system at Apex. Additionally, IWS says the 2020 acquisition of this rail-served landfill led to a significant decrease in scope 3 emissions from outsourced truck transfer trips.
Baseline: 6.06M MT CO2e combined scope 1 and 2 emissions in 2019
2022 status: 14% decrease in emissions from 2019 through 2022. In light of this progress, Waste Connection has set a new target to reduce emissions 30% by 2033 and is in the process of seeking approval through the Science Based Targets initiative. Renewable natural gas facilities are a focus, as landfills remains the primary driver of the company’s emissions. An estimated 10% of its fleet ran on compressed natural gas through the end of 2022.
