While we have a very small footprint in other rest of world countries, such as Singapore, Thailand, Vientam, Malaysia, it is difficult to receive the resources needed to make substantial decarbonization action in these countries. · Well-documented and integration of oversight of the development and performance of climate-related solutions will help to ensure product-level carbon intensity reductions. Our investments are focusing on infrastructure, innovation, education and clean-up initiatives. · We have organized our portfolio to enable our customers to solve complex sustainability changes, from enabling the use of more recycled content, formulating with bio- polymers, sustainable infrastructure, human health & safety, lightweighting, reducing volatile organic compounds, reducing energy usage and offering eco-conscious solutions. · Physical climate-related risk assessments over our critical manufacturing sites, suppliers, and logistics route will be helpful in making corporate real estate and procurement choices.
