Sustainability

We recognize that climate change represents a significant and complex challenge that we must address in unity. We are committed to diligently exploring all opportunities to reduce our energy usage and minimize the resulting greenhouse gas emissions wherever economically and technically feasible. We educate and motivate all colleagues to work together in an environmentally responsible manner, with measurable goals monitored at our more than 70 locations globally. We track each facility's energy conservation, recycling, and material reuse efforts through our Environmental Excellence Award program. Facilities that implement programs and achieve high environmental excellence results are recognized annually. But our efforts go beyond that. In recent years, we have committed to gradually and strategically decarbonize our business. We are moving into businesses that create great economic value but do so without mortgaging the natural world. This is our responsibility to our people, to our communities, and to the generations to come.
