Our commitment to building a net-zero future cuts carbon emissions over 90% by 2050 throughout our entire value chain which encompasses what we make (our products), how we make them (our operations) and the ways we deliver them (our transportation).<\/p>\n

Our long history of commitment to the planet laid the foundation for greater impact through collective action. The progress we\u2019ve made creates a world of possibilities for the future.<\/p>\n

Our path to net zero reflects the achievement of our absolute near- and long-term science-based targets. We are also working hard to achieve our science-based supplier engagement target representing a key foundation for achieving net zero.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Our role as a leader in the world of work demands that we develop and transparently share our ambitious \u2013 and achievable \u2013 plan for reaching our net-zero goal.<\/p>\n

We impact the lives of people and organizations around the world every day by helping them do their best work by creating places that work better. Please join us in designing a better future for people and the planet because better is<\/em> possible.<\/p>\n
