A key to achieving our net-zero commitments is engaging, empowering and working with suppliers to understand and mitigate their own environmental impact.

We engage suppliers to help incorporate this thinking into their processes and develop a greenhouse gas inventory with reduction goals we can monitor over time. Since 2022, our active suppliers have received a greenhouse gas supplier expectation letter introducing next steps on our emissions reduction journey. We also conduct greenhouse gas and supplier environmental, social and governance, or ESG, assessment trainings to support suppliers in this effort.

Our supplier sustainability training provides resources to help suppliers calculate and report greenhouse gas inventory – scope 1 and 2, optional scope 3, We hope suppliers consider setting a public greenhouse gas reduction goal, and identify potential greenhouse gas reduction opportunities.
