To help our planet thrive, we’re tackling climate change and making smarter user of resources. The four focus areas where we can generate the most value are:

• carbon footprint
• plastics
• packaging
• and water

These support the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals # 6, 12, and 13.

We promise to close the loop on plastic use across our value chain. We’re doing so by introducing alternatives to plastics and recycled plastics in new products, finding solutions for recycling and by helping customers manage plastics waste. These efforts reduce our climate impact and improve our raw material use.

2025 target:

• 50% of single-use products and components to be identified as recyclable or are acceptable through an accessible recycling stream
