The environment focus is embodied in the comply/improve/prepare agenda, which: ensures external regulatory compliance in operations, ensures internal environmental compliance in all Shell activities, facilitates environmental performance improvements in business execution, and prepares for the environmental challenges and opportunities of the future.
