At Amazon, we combine data and science with passion and invention to drive everything we do. We set big goals and work backwards to achieve them. We pledge to apply that same tenacity to how we address some of the world’s biggest environmental and societal challenges, so we can help make every day better for our customers, our employees, our communities, and our planet.
