“…the fundamental purpose of a corporation is to make people’s lives better, and we can do that by creating outstanding products, by investing in the communities where our employees live and work, and by using our position as a technology leader to tackle global sustainability challenges.” – William Clay Ford, Jr.

Ford’s global vehicles showcase our commitment to fuel efficiency. Technologies like EcoBoost®, direct injection of gasoline or diesel fuel, six-speed transmissions, and hybrid and plug-in hybrid powertrains deliver true “power of choice” to drivers everywhere.

Ford has adopted a rigorous and holistic approach to reducing the overall environmental impacts of our manufacturing facilities. We have established global facility environmental targets that address the range of our environmental impacts, including energy use, emissions, water use and waste generation.

Ford is committed to doing its share to prevent or reduce the potential for environmental, economic and social harm due to climate change.

•         Each new or significantly refreshed vehicle will be best in class, or among the best in class, for fuel economy
•         From our global portfolio of products, we will reduce GHG emissions consistent with doing our part for climate stabilization – even taking into account sales growth
•         We will reduce our facility CO₂ emissions by 30% from 2010 to 2025 on a per-vehicle basis and average energy consumed per vehicle by 25% from 2011 to 2016 globally

We believe Ford can play a role in developing and implementing solutions to the global water challenge. Ford remains committed to conserving water and using it responsibly. Our water strategy actions includes:

Minimizing water use and consumption at Ford facilities

Finding ways to use alternative, lower-quality water sources

Prioritizing our water technology investments based on local water scarcity and cost effectiveness

Meeting either local quality standards or Ford global standards for wastewater discharge – whichever is more stringent

Ensuring a stable water supply for our manufacturing facilities while working with local communities to minimize our impact
