Accelerating Environmental Sustainability

Recognizing our impact on the environment, we embrace our responsibility to manage it and drive positive change across our global value chain. We believe that for a meaningful contribution to climate mitigation, we need to collaborate across our industry and its supply chain, and take actions rooted in evidence and climate science.

We aim for emission reductions through efficiency and mitigation measures as well as active sourcing of renewable electricity, purchasing products and services that originate from more sustainable sources, and engaging with customers and suppliers along our value chain on joint decarbonization projects. We do this in the following four action areas.
