We have set aims for each of our focus areas:
In 2020 we set out our ambition to be a net zero company by 2050 or sooner and to help the world get to net zero. We are aiming to be net zero across our operations, production and sales.
This ambition is supported by 10 aims: five to help us become a net zero company and five to help the world get there too. Together, they set out a path that we believe is consistent with the goals of the Paris Agreement.
We recognize the importance of giving people access to energy, supporting a just energy transition, treating people with respect, enhancing diversity, equity and inclusion and supporting health and wellbeing.
Our five people aims build on strong social impact and risk management requirements in our operating management system.
Our sustainability frame focuses on making a real difference to the environment in which we operate.
Our five planet aims cover the enhancement of biodiversity, water management, nature-based solutions including those that reduce or remove carbon emissions, circularity and sustainable purchasing.
Our approach to sustainability is targeted, systematic and collaborative – built on strong, foundations that guide the way we work and support our net zero, people and planet aims. We are working to embed sustainability more widely and deeply in our culture, business decisions, processes and governance.
Engaging constructively helps us deliver our strategy and sustainability aims. We engage with many different stakeholders, in various ways – from local meetings to global partnerships.
Our main stakeholder groups are employees, customers, investors and shareholders, government and regulators, partners and suppliers, and society.
