The region's largest natural gas driller has committed to a future with zero greenhouse gas emissions.

Range Resources Corp. (NYSE: RRC), which has $3.3 billion in annual revenue and local headquarters at Southpointe, announced the goal in Tuesday's release of its first-ever Corporate Sustainability Report. The report reviews its accomplishments over the past 10 years reducing greenhouse gas emissions and sets forth the ambitious zero-emissions target in a variety of big and small ways.

"How can it be zero? How can it, frankly, be anything but zero" (as a goal) said Range Resources SVP Scott Roy. "Given the progress we've made (over the course of several years), we're confident we can get to that point."
