Notes to emissions reporting: • We calculate our greenhouse gas emissions inventory in accordance with the GHG Protocol Corporate Accounting Standard using an operational control boundary. Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions from all global owned and leased facilities worldwide are included in our inventory. Energy consumption is estimated for leased facilities where we do not have access to actual metered energy consumption data. • We measure and report our Scope 3 emissions from business travel, transmission and distribution losses. • Emission factor sources include: U.S. EPA Emission Factor Hub, March 2018, U.S. Electricity: Year 2016 eGRID Subregion Emission Factors (eGRID 2016, February 2018), International Electricity: Year 2011 factors from “CO2 Emissions from Fuel Combustion (2013 Edition)”, IEA, Paris • Adjustments were made to 2017 reported data following correction of minor discrepancies in fuel accounting from 2017. • Scope 1 emissions include natural gas and transportation fuels.

As shown above, we saw a 13% reduction in absolute GHG emissions (Scope 1 & 2) due to reduction initiatives, including real estate consolidation at our facilities. Scope 1 emissions show an increase across our portfolio due to improved methodology and data quality for stationary combustion in leased office space.
