Corsair Gaming, Inc. (Nasdaq: CRSR) ("Corsair" or the
"Company"), a leading global provider and innovator of
high-performance gear for gamers, streamers, content-creators, and
gaming PC builders, expressed its commitment to environmental
stewardship in a letter directed to Ms. Christiana Figueres,
Founding Partner of Global Optimism, underscoring CORSAIR’s
existing sustainability initiatives, while outlining its strategic
path to achieving carbon neutrality.
Delving into our environmental impact through comprehensive data
gathering for our first filing with Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP)
in 2023, we made significant discoveries. Globally, across 16
facilities, 59.28%[1] of all the electricity we purchased was
derived from renewable sources. This is a testament to our
commitment to improving sustainable practices across our
operations. Also encouraging is that five of our facilities,
including our largest European site in Almere, Netherlands, and our
headquarters in California, are now using 100% renewably sourced
electricity.
This knowledge helps us target the areas where improvements can
be made. We will complete another major step in early 2024 with the
installation of rooftop solar energy at our Milpitas, CA
headquarters. These are good discoveries, and important steps, and
we know there is more work to do.
CORSAIR firmly believes in the necessity of immediate and
collective action to combat climate change. By formally joining The
Climate Pledge, CORSAIR stands in solidarity with Amazon, Global
Optimism, and the diverse assembly of over 400 signatories. The
central aim of The Climate Pledge is to achieve net-zero carbon
emissions no later than 2040, encompassing Scopes 1, 2, and 3
emissions—a commitment that aligns with CORSAIR’s environmental
objectives.
As a signatory of The Climate Pledge, CORSAIR pledges
to:
- Consistently monitor and report its greenhouse gas
emissions.
- Implement comprehensive decarbonization strategies in harmony
with the principles of the Paris Agreement. This includes making
tangible business changes and fostering innovative solutions such
as enhancing energy efficiency, transitioning to renewable energy
sources, reducing material usage, and developing strategies to
eliminate carbon emissions.
- Take supplementary measures to offset any remaining emissions,
leveraging quantifiable, permanent, and socially beneficial
offsets, with the overarching objective of achieving net-zero
annual carbon emissions by 2040.
The decision by CORSAIR to align with The Climate Pledge
underscores its strong commitment to sustainability. The company
eagerly anticipates becoming an integral part of a global community
that encourages the exchange of knowledge, ideas, and best
practices, thus driving forward the vital cause of climate
action.
