Preserving our environment for future generations Protecting nature and biodiversity Producing energy that enables communities and economies to thrive Empowering people and driving prosperity We take a comprehensive approach to protecting our environment, focused on preserving biodiversity and natural ecosystems for our planet and its people. We do this by promoting nature-based climate solutions as we strive to reduce waste, use resources more efficiently, improve air quality and prevent pollution. We engage in biodiversity initiatives which seek to protect and preserve our planet for future generations. As the worlds population expands, energy demand is increasing. Today, almost 800 million people live in energy poverty with no access to electricity. Our goal is to responsibly provide the energy people depend on daily, while driving economic growth and social progress across our communities. As we deliver on this goal, we are committed to nurturing the next generation of talent, promoting diversity and inclusion and enhancing health and wellbeing. We are committed to respecting human rights and to improving the wellbeing of the societies in which we operate. Decarbonizing the energy of today and helping build the energy system of tomorrow Together towards net zero We aim to achieve net zero emissions in our own business operations by 2045. We are delivering on this mission by rapidly decarbonizing our operations today, while investing in the cleaner energy systems of the future. We are leveraging technology, artificial intelligence and innovation to accelerate this journey and are collaborating with our customers to lower emissions from sectors that are harder to decarbonize. Our strategy is aligned with the UAE Consensus and the need for a fully inclusive approach to the climate challenge. It acknowledges the role our industry must play in achieving a just, orderly and equitable energy transition to meet the global goal of net zero by 2050. 9 Energy for Life
