TIME created the list with data firm Statista, measuring Scope 1 and 2 emissions and energy consumption relative to company size, emissions reductions in 2021 and 2022, and the proportion of renewable energy used in company operations.

Scope 1 emissions are directly caused by a company and Scope 2 are indirectly created when a company purchases power.

In early 2024, Puma announced that it reached its science-based CO₂ reduction target seven years ahead of schedule.

The company has also focused on introducing renewable electricity at its core suppliers, using product-materials that are less carbon-intensive, opting for low-carbon shipping tariffs, and investing in electric vehicles in its car fleet.
