U.S.-booked air spend at pharmaceutical and medical device
firm Abbott increased slightly in 2018 from 2017, according to a BTN estimate.
Abbott generated about 254,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent
emissions in 2018 due to its business travel, nearly 47 percent more than it
had one year earlier. For employees who travel for business at least twice per
year or spend at least $1,000 on business travel per year, Abbott makes available
a Bank of America corporate business card. Abbott's sales increased nearly 12
percent in 2018 to $30.6 billion. Abbott employed about 103,000 people as of
Dec. 31, 2018, about 4,000 more than it had one year prior.
