Corporate Responsibility performance summary  continued 1  In 2011 additional seeds sites  have been added to the data  collection system Our HSE management system helps us monitor, measure and identify opportunities to reduce the environmental  impacts of our operations. These include energy use, greenhouse gas and other air emissions, and water  consumption. For each of these, we report both absolute and relative data (normalized to US$EBIT) to show our  performance in relation to the value we create. Reducing our carbon footprint is a key focus and we have set a target to cut our global greenhouse gas emissions  by 40 percent relative to EBIT by the end of 2012 (from the 2006 baseline). Our energy strategy has helped us make  progress towards this goal by encouraging sites to monitor energy use, identify and implement opportunities to  improve efficiency and share best practice across the company. We also have local targets and programs to reduce  waste sent to landfill, promote recycling and cut water use.
