by 39% or 1.4 billion litres — equivalent to nearly 15 million 10-minute showers. Safety and wellness: Employees will be injury-free and will have bestin-class wellness programmes. Results to date: P&W has an outstanding record in developing measureable programmes to improve safety, reduce injuries, and promote wellness. Since 2006, P&W has decreased injury rates by 57%. Materials: Ensure engines are 100% recyclable at the end of their life. Products will maximise the amount of recycled or reverted metals and contain no materials of concern. Results to date: For more than 15 years, Pratt & Whitney has actively pursued reductions in the use of materials of concern in its products and factories that could negatively impact the environment and successfully executed a technology plan to develop green alternative materials. Suppliers: Suppliers will have world class safety rates, will meet aggressive resource conservation targets and will be 100% green certified. Results to date: P&W suppliers are required to follow a code of conduct that includes resource conservation, ethics, labour guidelines and safe workplace requirements. Products: Engines will be the most fuel-efficient and quietest on the market. Results to date: P&W is well on its way to meeting that goal with its exclusive Geared Turbofan technology that provides up to 16% reduction in fuel burn compared with other modern engines — plus significantly lower emissions, noise and maintenance cost. The PurePower engine family cuts carbon emissions by 3,000 tonnes per aircraft per year, reduces aircraft noise footprints by 50 to 75% (operating 15 to 20dB below today’s most stringent standard — ICAO Stage 4), and will surpass the most stringent standards (CAEP/6) by 50% for nitrogen oxides. Pratt & Whitney has invested almost $60 million in more than 800 environmental projects since 2006 and demonstrates its leadership in global sustainability through its innovative products and services. Pratt & Whitney collaborates with suppliers and communities to reduce its global environmental footprint and increase natural resource efficiencies in its factories. F.

SUPPORTING WORLD HEALTH
For the global pharmaceutical industry, getting vaccines and medicines to where they are needed is a delicate process. Many drugs, particulalrly life-saving vaccines, need to be used quickly and transported in a strict temperature-controlled environment. In fact, around $250 billion worth of temperature-sensitive medicine is sold each year. Aviation is often the only choice to deliver these supplies where they are needed. The World Health Organization estimates that, by 2015, some 4 — 5 million child deaths a year will be prevented by immunisation programmes. And while patents on a lot of commercial medications are set to expire in the next few years, the generic products that replace them will also require secure and careful transport. F.
