Healthy environment and thriving communities go hand in hand, creating brighter smiles and a healthier future together. We understand this close connection between the two, knowing that by helping the environment, we improve both personal well-being and the chance for a healthier tomorrow.
We organize our strategy around environmental sustainability and implement a range of interventions and initiatives aimed at optimizing our environmental footprint. We aim to maximize our efforts and achieve outcomes that outperform standard expectations.
Accelerating action on climate change is a core action of our 2025 Sustainability & Social Impact Strategy and drives our intention for Net Zero carbon emissions across our growing business.
These targets align with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), the Paris Agreement, our signing of the Business Ambition for 1.5°C and our commitment to Recover Better, working in concert with the UN Global Compact (UNGC). We report our global progress on a regular basis with our global TCFD report.
