25 California Climate Registry Annual Emissions Report Report Date: 05/05/ :47 am PT Contact: Audrey Bamberger Anheuser-Busch is one of the world's largest beer companies, and a leader in the entertainment and packaging industries. Anheuser-Busch operates in four segments: Domestic Beer, International Beer, Packaging, and Entertainment. The company's interests also span aluminum beverage container recycling, malt production, rice milling, real estate development, turf farming, label printing and transportation services. Anheuser-Busch is best known for the world's top two selling beers, Bud Light and Budweiser.

27 California Climate Registry This report includes emissions from California sources Anheuser-Busch Companies, Inc. Annual Emissions Report Report Date: 05/05/ :47 am PT Basis of Certification Opinion: Tetra Tech EMI reviewed the greenhouse gas inventory submitted by Anheuser-Busch Companies, Inc. to the Registry through the Climate Action Registry s Reporting Online Tool. Based on this review, site visits, and independent evaluation of the data, Tetra Tech EMI concludes that the Anheuser-Busch inventory meets the reporting standards presented in the General Reporting Protocol (V2.2, March 2007). Tetra Tech EMI certifies this data without qualification, according to the General Certification Protocol (V2, July 2003). OPTIONAL INFORMATION Information in this section is voluntarily provided by the participant for public information, but is not required and thus, not certified under Registry protocols. Optional Emissions CO2e CO2 CH4 N2O HFCs* PFCs* SF6 Unit Other Indirect Emissions TOTAL OPTIONAL * HFCs and PFCs are classes of greenhouse gases that include many compounds. These columns may reflect the total emissions of multiple HFC and PFC compounds, each of which has a unique Global Warming Potential (GWP). Emissions of each gas are first multiplied by their respective GWP and then summed in the total CO2-equivalent column. Utility initiatives. Anheuser-Busch is committed to a comprehensive energy strategy which includes energy conservation and increasing our use of renewable fuels. We recently implemented a project to identify greenhouse gas impacts from capital projects. Carbon dioxide capture systems. Four of our breweries currently use carbon dioxide advanced purification systems. This technology captures and reuses carbon dioxide earlier in and throughout the fermentation process than would otherwise not be captured.

28 Transportation. Anheuser-Busch works with its wholesalers and suppliers to reduce truck miles and the subsequent environmental impact. Anheuser-Busch is committed to reducing transportation costs and associated environmental impacts and evaluating non-fossil-based fuels and advanced vehicle technologies for use in the transportation fleet. Voluntary partnerships. Anheuser-Busch is partnering with groups such as EPA (Climate Leaders, SmartWay Transport, WasteWise, Landfill Methane Outreach and Energy Star programs), the California Climate Action Registry, WestStart-CALSTART and The National Biodiesel Board to help us better understand and manage climate and renewable fuel issues. Emissions Management Programs: Emissions Efficiency metric: Emissions Reduction Projects: Anheuser-Busch Companies has a company-wide absolute goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions 5 percent from a 2005 baseline by This goal is part of our commitment to Climate Leaders.
