Our Sustainability Commitments
We know that climate change is real and urgent action is needed to create a more sustainable and equitable world. To secure a sustainable future and rise to the ambitions of our purpose, every part of our business takes part in our commitments.
To ensure our strategy will have the positive impact that is necessary, we've aligned our commitments with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and are among the first in our industry, and the world, to undertake the scientific rigor of having our 2030 and net-zero by 2050 emissions reduction goals validated by the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi).
Gigaton Challenge
We are reducing one billion metric tons (a gigaton) of carbon emissions (CO2e) from our customers' footprint by 2030.
Leading by Example
We lead our industry in responsible operations and encourage our suppliers to follow.
Opportunity for All
Creating new possibilities and a better world for our people and communities starts with education, equality, economic mobility and growth.
We've built centers of expertise and collaborative partnerships to advance goals and raise expectations for a healthier world.
