These products and solutions include: natural gas, lightweight materials and packaging, and advanced fuels and lubricants. • Recognizing climate change is a global issue that requires collaboration among governments, private companies, consumers and other stakeholders to create meaningful solutions, ExxonMobil has participated in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) since its inception in 1988, is a founding member of the Climate Leadership Council, and is part of the Oil and Gas Climate Initiative. • Commercially viable technology advances are required to achieve the Paris Agreement objectives.
