On #EarthDay, we reflect on the relationship between plastics and our planet. Our EVP of Sustainability and Corporate Affairs, Tracey Campbell, shares her insights on this critical issue: https://lnkd.in/gHxqNqgN #PlasticsAndPlanet
As I contemplate Earth Day, I’m drawn to the intersection of plastics and our planet. In my role as EVP of Sustainability and Corporate Affairs at LyondellBasell, I’ve witnessed firsthand the critical role our industry plays in addressing plastic pollution. Today, I’ll share thoughts on creating a sustainable future—one where plastics coexist harmoniously with our environment. Plastic pollution is a critical issue, and we recognize our industry has an important role to play in solving the problem. Today, on Earth Day, we are all reminded of our responsibility to safeguard and protect our planet and there is undoubtedly a need for industry to move faster. Framing plastics as an adversary to the planet ignores the positive role which plastics play in society, the promise of a circular economy, and the active role producers are playing to enable a global agreement to end plastic pollution. I believe it is plastics AND planet. Plastics are essential to enabling a sustainable future, and we can move faster toward ending plastic waste by embracing and enabling a circular economy. I invite you to read more Learn about how we can build a world where plastics and our planet thrive side by side: https://lnkd.in/g-azBY-V #EarthDay #Sustainability #CircularEconomy #PlasticsAndPlanet

Happy Earth Day! Let’s take a moment to reflect on the simple actions we can all take to contribute to everyday sustainability. Here are just a few examples from LYB employees: ✅ Pause and reflect: before making a purchase, consider its impact. ✅ Recycle: participate in your local recycling program. ✅ Reuse: keep a reusable cup or travel mug with you. ✅ Educate: have a family conversation about the role that plastics play in our lives. ✅ Conserve: use captured rainwater for your plants and try to minimize your energy consumption.

The expansion of the #Rotterdam #Botlek Steam Network is official! LyondellBasell, AVR, Cabot Corporation, LANXESS, Huntsman Corporation and NetVerder, are jointly taking action to decrease natural gas consumption and reduce CO2 and nitrogen emissions by reusing steam released as residual heat from industrial processes. With this far-reaching collaboration, manufacturers, grid company, Gemeente Rotterdam and Provincie Zuid-Holland are joining forces to make industry in the Rotterdam Botlek area more sustainable. "Addressing climate change is one of the most pressing challenges our world faces and we believe collective action and a sense of urgency are needed. We have set ambitious 2030 interim targets to reduce our emissions," says Jan Dirk van Loon, our Senior Director Net Zero Strategy & Execution EU. "We need to collaborate to achieve our goals, especially in a heavily integrated industrial cluster like Rotterdam Botlek. When the steam network is operational, we can save a collective amount of gas at the Botlek cluster that is comparable to the annual consumption of about 45,000 households, a city like Schiedam and our greenhouse gas emissions in Botlek will be reduced by 15%." The building of this expansion is expected to be completed by the beginning of 2026. Read more: http://spr.ly/6045bReof #CO2Reduction #Sustainability #Industry
