Climate change poses a serious threat, so we've come up with a four-point plan to do our part that starts with listening to those at the forefront of this fight.
“ Our approach has always centered around listening to our communities — our employees, our customers and the communities we live in. ”

Chief Executive Officer
Step 1
We mapped greenhouse gas emissions across every aspect of our business, from the materials we source and how we travel to the way customers use our products. Our 2020 footprint amounted to 1,232,430 metric tons of CO2.

*Scope 3 emissions, as defined by the GHG Protocol , represent 99% of our overall footprint
Step 2
We'll reduce our emissions in the areas with the largest impact, creating measurable targets around energy efficiency, distribution, and our supply chain.
Product Energy Usage
We’ll develop solutions to reduce the energy consumption of our products while they are in use and when they are idle.
Distribution and Logistics
We’ll improve our distribution and logistics network to make it more efficient.
Supply Chain Contributions
We’ll work with our major suppliers to incorporate climate-friendly practices, such as switching to renewable energy sources.
Step 3
We'll increase our investment in high-quality carbon offsets that emphasize conservation of natural resources.
Step 4
As carbon capture technology advances, we'll shift our investments toward pulling greenhouse gases from the atmosphere, aiming to remove more than we emit and become climate positive.
