“We are excited to be recognized once again by Newsweek for our ongoing sustainability efforts,” said Martin O’Neill, senior vice president and chief sustainability officer. “This past year, we continued to build on our decades long commitment to sustainability by accomplishing notable milestones such as achieving five of our 2025 sustainability goals ahead of schedule and launching our new EVOLVE® Sustainable Solutions technology platform. This is recognition of the progress we have made on our sustainability journey and reinforces our commitment to being a responsible operator in support of our customers, employees, investors and the communities in which we operate in.”
