Page 69-70 - Unknown exact amount, however some key facts:

"In 2020, we diverted over 900 tons of debris from landfills, which represents more than 65 percent of debris generated from the headquarter’s project and from the construction project at our data centre in Connecticut. At Cigna-managed facilities, we were able to achieve a landfill diversion rate of 65 percent utilising various recycling streams and programs."

 

Plastic & Glass - "In 2020, Cigna’s non-pharma locations recycled over 255

tons of waste." "Recycled nearly 1,000 tons of plastic pill bottles as part of our pharmaceutical fulfilment centres’ specialty recycling program."

 

Paper - "Promote a 100 percent paper shredding policy, which resulted in the diversion of 1,195 metric tons of waste to landfill across the portfolio in 2020 and 9,195 tons since 2014." "Support the purchasing of recycled paper through procurement practices, which now represents roughly 60 percent of our total paper spend."
