META SUSTAINABILITY


FOR A BETTER REALITY

We believe sustainability is about more than operating responsibly. It is an
opportunity to support the communities we are a part of and have a positive
impact on the world.

our value chain and become water positive in 2030.

WE ARE IN THE BUSINESS OF BUILDING BETTER REALITIES—AND NOT JUST VIRTUAL ONES.

We are working in partnership with others to scale inclusive solutions that
support the transition to a zero-carbon economy and help create a healthier
planet for all.

We see our role as protecting people and the planet through responsible
operations — reducing our emissions and the energy and water used to power our
data centers that enable users to access our products — while protecting workers
and the environment in our supply chain.

We set expectations with respect to the environment, labor, and human rights in
our operations and supply chain. This means ensuring that suppliers that produce
and procure hardware adhere to standards that support safe, healthy and fair
working conditions.

At the same time, we acknowledge we will not realize this vision on our own. We
continue to collaborate with multi-stakeholder groups, community members,
climate action leaders and scientists to innovate beyond what is possible today
and work to achieve net zero emissions across our value chain and become water
positive in 2030.


OUR APPROACH

Our sustainability strategy is anchored by three components


HOW WE OPERATE

Protecting the well-being of people and our planet by:

 * Reducing our environmental footprint, championing renewable energy, restoring
   water resources and engaging our suppliers.
 * Respecting human rights and protecting the environment within our operations
   and supply chain.
 * Boosting energy and water efficiency in our data centers.


WHAT WE CREATE

Pushing the boundaries of what’s possible, creating solutions where none existed
and building apps and services that enable change by:

 * Providing access to new ideas, accurate information and ways to take action
   via content on our platforms.
 * Designing new apps and services with diverse needs and values in mind.
 * Integrating circular practices in our facilities and hardware manufacturing
   processes.


HOW WE COLLABORATE

Working together to make the systems-level changes required to build a
climate-resilient better reality, by forming partnerships and joining
initiatives that:

 * Preparing people and communities to adapt to the risks associated with
   climate and social change.
 * Engaging experts to guide our sustainability and social impact initiatives.
 * Generating learnings that help inform and shape our standards.
 * Connecting researchers with insights.
 * Working with businesses, NGOs and community organizations to create and
   implement locally beneficial environmental projects.


GOALS AND COMMITMENTS

Since 2020, we have maintained net zero GHG emissions in our global operations.
We have publicly committed to achieving net zero emissions across our value
chain and becoming water positive in 2030.

In support of these goals and our vision for a transition to a zero-carbon
economy and a healthier planet for all, we have identified additional objectives
and commitments.


Restore 200% of the water we consume in high water stress regions and 100% of
the water we consume in medium water stress regions.

Continue to match 100% of our electricity use with renewable energy.

Reduce our Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 42% in 2031 from a 2021 baseline.

Enable at least two-thirds of our suppliers to set science-aligned emissions
reduction targets by 2026.

Not exceed our 2021 baseline Scope 3 emissions by the end of 2031.

Positively impact the communities and environment where we operate, and expect
supply chain partners to uphold high human rights and environmental standards.
