Globe made TIME and Statista's World's Most Sustainable Companies list for the second year, the only Philippine telco on the global ranking. Emissions cuts outpaced annual targets.
TAGUIG CITY, Philippines – Globe has made TIME and Statista's World's Most Sustainable Companies list for the second year running, the only Philippine telecommunications company on the global ranking and one of just two Philippine firms recognized this year.
The repeat inclusion places Globe alongside global peers on sustainability, transparency, and governance metrics. Carl Cruz, Globe's President and CEO, said the ranking shows Philippine companies can meet the same global standards expected of leading organizations.
"Earning a place on this global ranking shows that Philippine companies can meet the highest global standards for sustainability, transparency, and responsible governance," Cruz said. "Our sustainability practice continues to strengthen, it has become a measure of how we build trust, create long-term value, and remain competitive in a rapidly changing world."
The ranking evaluates companies on governance, transparency, accountability, external ratings, and social impact, not just environmental performance. Globe's inclusion reflects its decarbonization progress. The company cut gross Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 15.13% year-on-year and gross Scope 3 emissions by 9.49%. Both reductions outpaced its annual targets of 4.2% for Scope 1 and 2 and 2.5% for Scope 3.
Globe has also expanded its renewable energy use, transitioning roughly 700 sites as of end-May 2026. It targets at least 3,000 sites by 2028.
Globe Telecom, Inc. trades on the Philippine Stock Exchange under the symbol GLO. It is a UN Global Compact Participant and the first publicly listed Philippine firm with approved near- and long-term science-based targets under the SBTi. Its principals are Ayala Corporation and Singtel.
