At The Dow Chemical Company, sustainability requires making every decision with the future in mind. As we continue our sustainability journey into 2010 – the mid-point of our 2015 Goals – we continue to make progress in reducing our own footprint and delivering technology that helps the rest of the world reduce theirs.
