Environmental Performance At-a-Glance

In 2006, Baxter concluded its first year of progress on its 2010 environmental goals. As the graph below indicates, Baxter is on target to meet or exceed its water usage, energy usage, greenhouse gas emissions and environmental-incident reduction goals. However, the company has not made significant progress on its total waste-generation reduction goal. See the pages in this section for more detail.

The following table describes total savings and cost avoidance realized in 2006 from activities completed in 2006. See the Environmental Financial Statement for more detail.
