By 2030, Avient will reduce Scope 1 & 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 60% with 2019 as a baseline and achieve operational carbon neutrality by 2050. The Environmental, Health and Safety Committee reviews the programs and procedures established by the Company that monitor compliance with the Company's policies, standards and practices, and laws and regulations with respect to safety, environmental, health, and product stewardship, including providing oversight of the systems that are in place to monitor and mitigate our carbon footprint Our Environmental, Health and Safety Committee also provides oversight of the systems that are in place to monitor and mitigate our carbon footprint.

Examples include: • Unique technologies that improve the recyclability of products and enable recycled content to be incorporated, thus advancing a more circular economy • Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation and reduce carbon footprint • Sustainable infrastructure solutions that increase energy efficiency, renewable energy, natural resource conservation and fiber optic / 5G network accessibility Avient employs approximately 8,700 associates and is certified ACC Responsible Care® and a founding member of the Alliance to End Plastic Waste.

Thermoplastic composites include base resins, but are combined with a structural element such as glass, carbon or polymer fibers to enhance strength, rigidity and structure. This allows us to rapidly translate new technologies into new products, helping us advance a more circular economy with reduced carbon footprint. Carbon emissions have become the subject of an increasing amount of state and local, regional, national, and international attention.
