SUSTAINABILITY PILLARS
Our sustainability plan will advance our commitment to key environment-positive objectives through our four pillars:
Identify & Manage Emissions
Increase energy efficiency, decarbonize energy, cooling and transport, and balance any remaining emissions through carbon offsets.
Replenish Water
Reduce operational water consumption, replenish the water that we use, and drive water positive conservation efforts.
Increase Circularity
Reduce the amount of resources used, increase use of recycled content, and reused materials. Aim to keep products in use so that nothing goes to waste.
Make Biodiversity Gains
Protect and preserve habitats and increasing the abundance and diversity of plant and animal species appropriate to local ecology.
