At Chevron, we are responding on a number of fronts. In order to minimize greenhouse gas emissions, we have an aggressive effort under way to reduce flaring and venting in our operations. We support carbon sequestration research and technology and expect it to be an important part of the Greater Gorgon Area natural gas development offshore Australia. We continue to look for ways to use energy more efficiently and to help customers do the same. And we are forming alliances to advance the commercial feasibility of biofuels from nonfood sources, including recycled forest products, agricultural residues, municipal solid waste and new energy crops. These steps will help curb greenhouse gas emissions while developing the energy the world needs.
