SUSTAINABILITY AT CATERPILLAR Nearly a century of sustainable innovation. Driving sustainable progress and helping customers build a better world through innovative products and services is not new to Caterpillar. Since our founding in 1925, sustainable innovation has powered our business. Today, with products from our Construction Industries, Resource Industries and Energy & Transportation segments in virtually every corner of the earth, we share the concerns of governments and the public about the risks of climate change. We support global efforts to mitigate climate change. We are committed to reducing Caterpillar’s GHG emissions while helping our customers meet their climate-related objectives as they build a better, more sustainable world. We support our customers during this energy transition through investments in new products, technologies and services. Providing what customers need, where and when they need it, has been a formula for success throughout Caterpillar’s history. Projects like the Panama Canal and the Apollo 11 mission to the moon are just two examples of big global challenges we’ve helped our customers tackle by bringing together innovative equipment, services and support. These milestones in our history were groundbreaking — and challenging. And now, we collectively face our next one — mitigating the effects of global climate change. Along with our customers, we’ve helped build the world we live in and embrace the challenge of helping build an even better one. 9 CATERPILLAR 2021 SUSTAINABILITY REPORT
