We’re dedicated to our priorities.
We understand that priorities on paper mean nothing unless they also translate to real-life action. With that in mind, we’re stepping up the way we bring our sustainability efforts to life.
We’ve designed our approach for managing sustainability issues to emphasize transparency and oversight while also embedding sustainable thinking into our overall strategy and leveraging the expertise of leaders throughout the company.
Here’s what that looks like:
Board and Executive Level Oversight: The Executive Committee reviews all sustainability programs and practices, and they report to our Board of Directors and its Nominating and Governance Committee quarterly under the direction of our Chief Legal Officer (CLO).
Sustainability Steering Committee: This committee supports our ongoing commitment to transparency, program development and goalsetting when it comes to implementing sustainability practices. The committee includes leaders from across the company and is chaired by the Senior Director of Sustainability.
Sustainability Working Groups: We have six working groups, each of which is aligned with one or more of our sustainability priorities. These groups are responsible for helping to collect and report the relevant data, assisting with program implementation and driving progress on our sustainability priorities and goals. These action-focused working groups are led by the dedicated Sustainability Manager.

And that’s not all. We’ve taken additional steps to infuse sustainability priorities into our operations:
We have a robust year-round shareholder engagement process that allows us to regularly share our sustainability progress and receive candid, actionable feedback from our shareholders.
Our Board assigned new oversight relating to sustainability developments and disclosures to our Nominating and Governance Committee.
We’ve benchmarked our sustainability priorities to assess our current maturity in these areas and to provide a baseline against which we will measure our progress.
We completed our first greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory.

(Bloomberg) -- Google, Facebook and Microsoft Corp. — three of the world’s biggest corporate buyers of clean power — are sounding the alarm that a nearly $4 billion, Warren Buffett-backed renewable-energy project proposed in Iowa isn’t necessarily in the best interest of customers, including them.Most Read from BloombergUS Lifts Covid-19 Test Requirement for International TravelUS Inflation Quickens to 40-Year High, Pressuring Fed and BidenEating Two Portions of Fish Per Week Linked to Deadly Sk
United States Steel Corp. in April paid a $4.5 million fine imposed the month before for a series of alleged environmental violations at the Clairton Coke Works in Clairton, while at the same time appealing Allegheny County Health Department's decision. ACHD in late March had imposed the penalties for what it said were 831 air emissions from the coke oven, called uncontrolled push violations, that it had said occurred at the Clairton plant between January 2020 and March 2022. The payment of the fine was disclosed Thursday by GASP, a Pittsburgh-based environmental group that has clashed with U.S. Steel (NYSE: X) and sometimes ACHD about the emissions from the plant.

(Reuters) -Power demand in Texas will likely break records on Friday and Monday as economic growth boosts usage and homes and businesses keep air conditioners cranked up to escape a lingering heatwave, after failing to reach that record high earlier this week. Energy analysts at EBW Analytics said less hot weather from thunderstorms and the fire that shut the Freeport liquefied natural gas plant in Texas this week helped keep demand below forecast. "Texas electricity demand has come in below ... same-day forecasts each of the past four days," EBW said.

U.S. renewable energy developers have delayed or scrapped several big battery projects meant to store electrical power on the grid in recent months, scuttling plans to replace fossil fuels with wind and solar energy. At least a dozen storage projects meant to support growing renewable energy supplies have been postponed, canceled or renegotiated as labor and transport bottlenecks, soaring minerals prices, and competition from the electric vehicle industry crimp supply. One previously unreported dispute over a delayed California storage project has even wound up in court.
President Joe Biden authorized use of the Defense Production Act to ramp up production of several climate-friendly technologies. Werner Slocum/NRELSolar panels, heat pumps and hydrogen are all building blocks of a clean energy economy. But are they truly “essential to the national defense”?

The world's ocean freight shipping companies recently called on international maritime authorities to exclude pollution that their vessels spew in bad weather from new regulations, a condition that would apply almost a third of the time in the Atlantic. Under international laws due to come into force in 2023, all big vessels will be rated from A to E by how much carbon dioxide flows from their stacks for every mile traveled and ton carried. Although the proposed rules are currently toothless, nation states might bring in penalties for high-polluting ships in the future.

The non-profit group The Ocean Cleanup has installed a huge, steel-mesh screen on a heavily polluted river outside Guatemala City, in a bid to stop plastics and other debris before they reach the ocean. The Las Vacas river is strewn with mounds of trash deposited by fluctuating river currents. Looking something like a big cyclone metal fence stretching across the river bed, the screen is anchored to the river banks.
