the environment and the health and safety of our employees and contractors and the communities where we operate.”211 “We voluntarily report estimated GHG emissions and have participated in the CDP (formerly the Climate Disclosure Project) survey since its inception in 2003. In our 2017 CDP submittal, Occidental provided increased disclosure on initiatives for mitigating CO2 and methane emissions, as well as our direct and indirect estimated emissions by business divisions for both CO2 and methane, among other GHGs. Our CDP responses are available on our company website. We also participate in the recently announced API-sponsored Environmental Partnership to reduce methane emissions and plan to share our progress on these efforts. We recognize that planning for a lower-carbon economy is a continuing and evolving process. Going forward, we will monitor and adjust our metrics and targets. Occidental is committed to maintaining an ongoing and transparent dialogue between management, shareholders and other key stakeholders on climate-related risks and opportunities.”212 Statements on Human Rights “Occidental is committed to providing safe, healthy and secure workplaces; minimizing the environmental impacts of its operations; maintaining high ethical standards; upholding and promoting human rights; and respecting cultural norms and values, everywhere we operate.”213 “As stated in Occidental’s Code of Business Conduct, Occidental's business shall be conducted in accordance with all applicable laws of the United States and Foreign Governments and in a manner that will always reflect a high standard of ethics.
