62 SUSTAINABILITY CLIMATE AND ENVIRONMENT ACHIEVING LEED CERTIFICATION In fiscal 2021, we achieved LEED Certification at two of our New York City offices. They include a recently renovated floor at our corporate headquarters in Manhattan and a floor at our offices in Long Island City, Queens. GREEN BUILDINGS AND RETAIL DESIGN We have developed green building standards for our spaces, which include retail, office, manufacturing, distribution and warehouse, and research and development (R&D) sites. Our Green Building Standards are our roadmap to help ensure that new construction and major renovations incorporate green building principles into their design. The Standards set the baseline for practices covering energy, water, waste, and indoor air quality. We have also developed sustainability practices for existing spaces that are focused on driving sustainable behaviors. REDUCING THE USE OF PLASTIC We have developed internal plastics guidelines in order to reduce the use of virgin and nonrecyclable plastic across our business, including within office environments.
