The reduction of unnecessary materials helps conserve natural resources and lower operational emissions. By switching to lighter-weight or adding circular materials, we have the expertise to help identify and implement projects that help customers meet their sustainability goals.
Our Progress with More Reducing
We support More Reducing by cutting greenhouse gas emissions across our entire company (scopes 1 [direct], 2 [indirect], and 3 [supply chain]). Optimizing product and packaging design, reducing operational energy use, and collaborating with suppliers with similar sustainability priorities helps lessen our carbon footprint.
We are working with environmental NGOs and leaders across the value chain to drive More Reducing by significantly reducing greenhouse gas emissions globally. For example, we have developed science-based emission reductions targets to support the transition to a net-zero economy by partnering with the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), the United Nations Global Compact, World Resources Institute (WRI), and the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) enabling us to accomplish More Together.
