Earth Month: Building A Better Tomorrow
Sustainability is a never-ending journey, directly tied to every part of ATD's strategy evolution. We’re pioneering a better future and creating a company and culture built to last.
Earth Month serves as a dedicated period to raise awareness about environmental issues and inspire collective action towards sustainability. Throughout April, people and organizations worldwide come together to advocate for the protection of our planet, promote eco-friendly practices, and drive positive change.
To succeed as a leading corporation for generations to come, we must deliver value not only to our investors, but also to the environment and the society we nurture inside and outside our company.

Our goal is to reduce our carbon footprint by replacing carbon-based sources of energy in our operations with renewable sources. Click here to read more about our strategy and download our sustainability reports.

Turn off lights, unplug electronics when not in use, use energy-efficient appliances, and consider renewable energy sources like solar panels.
Water Conservation
Fix leaks, take shorter showers, install water-saving devices like low-flow faucets and toilets, and collect rainwater for outdoor use.
