Ingersoll Rand declared at the 2014 CGI Annual Meeting and United
Nations Climate Summit that it would reduce its greenhouse gas emissions to
half by 2020. This will avoid the same amount of CO2 emissions that can result
from powering nearly 2 million homes for one year. Ingersoll Rand was selected
for the 2014 Dow Jones Sustainability World and North America Indices, in
recognition of the company’s economic, environmental andsocial performance, for
the fourth consecutive year. The company’s operational and product-related
climate targets are: 1. 50 percent reduction in the greenhouse gas refrigerant
footprint of products for customers by 2020, and lower global warming potential
alternatives across the portfolio by 2030; 2. $500 million investment in
product-related research and development over the next five years to fund the
long-term reduction of greenhouse gas emissions; and 3. 35 percent reduction in
the greenhouse gas footprint of the company’s office buildings, manufacturing
facilities and fleet by 2020. Further details of Ingersoll Rand’s commitment
