Climate Change

Pillar 2: Transforming the planet

Aim 4: Net Zero Carbon by 2050 or sooner

Climate change is a major worldwide threat that is influenced directly by human activities and necessitates immediate response. We have a responsibility to address this global issue by reducing emissions at our operations and throughout our value chain, as well as producing metals, minerals, and energy in a sustainable manner, which are critical for developing the technologies and infrastructure required to transition to a low-carbon economy.
