Statement From Peabody Energy on COP 22

Peabody Energy recognizes that fossil fuels contribute to greenhouse gas emissions, and we believe that technology is the proper way to address society’s interest in managing them. 

For nearly two decades, Peabody has encouraged use of technology to lower emissions in power generation while investing hundreds of millions of dollars in clean coal technology projects and partnerships. We believe that high-efficiency low emissions technology and longer term, carbon capture use and storage should be part of a comprehensive approach. We will continue to work with industry, government and NGO participants on how best to use technology to achieve our energy, economic and environmental goals. 

Our views are articulated in our Statement on Energy and Climate Change and our Corporate and Social Responsibility Report, which are both available on PeabodyEnergy.com.
