greenhouse gas emissions.”
In 2017, we continue to develop natural gas and renewable energy infrastructure.
Expanding the export of liquefied natural gas will allow many countries to reduce
reliance on higher-emissions energy sources such as fuel oil or coal. And expanding the
development of renewable energy in the United States and Latin America means that
many people and businesses will begin to reap the benefits of clean energy. The positive
environmental impact of these activities, particularly in terms of reduced greenhouse
gas emissions, will be significant.
As we address risks, leverage our strengths and seek new opportunities, we must
make complex choices. Our core values guide us every day: We act with honesty and
integrity; we seek out and listen to those with different perspectives; we create positive
relationships; we set and achieve tough goals; and we work to shape the future.
