One of the Homestead Association's key events, the Rachel Carson Legacy Challenge reception hosted by Teresa Heinz Kerry at the Senator John Heinz History Center, will recognize Bayer and 15 other companies and organizations. Specifically, Bayer is being honored for its continued support and implementation of its various local, national and global environmental initiatives, some begun more than a decade ago, that are designed to foster a healthier planet. Throughout the centennial year, Bayer is also helping to sponsor a number of special environmental education programs organized by the Homestead Association. "Bayer employees are proud that we as a company take action that supports the public interest and demonstrates corporate citizenship that benefits humankind," said Dr. Attila Molnar, President and CEO, Bayer Corporation. "In meeting our responsibilities to society, Bayer relies on its core values of improving quality of life while harmonizing commercial efficiency, ecology and social commitment." The objective of the event is to highlight how commitment to environmentally sustainable practices can make a tangible difference in the health, quality of life, environment and economic viability of local, regional and global communities. "We applaud Bayer Corporation for continuing to take 'green steps to a sustainable future,' by making permanent, measurable changes in behavior and policies that promote Rachel Carson's environmental ethic," said Patricia M. DeMarco, executive director, Rachel Carson Homestead Association. "As a forward-thinking company, Bayer clearly understands that by committing to this challenge, it will help build conditions for a more sustainable, healthy world." Bayer's Sustainability Progress Bayer works to develop technologies that increase energy efficiency and protect drinking water; helps to eradicate pandemic diseases in the developing world; strengthens science education in the United States; introduces sustainable business practices to today's students; and reduces its own footprint globally. Bayer was one of the first chemical companies to join the Responsible Care(R) initiative and publish an environmental report in 1993. Several years later, it would become one of 45 founding members of the United Nation's Global Compact and join the Global Reporting Initiative. More than a decade ago, Bayer set an ambitious goal to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from more than 400 facilities worldwide in absolute numbers by 50 percent from 1990 to 2012, while simultaneously increasing manufacturing output. Since 1990, Bayer has bettered the greenhouse gas emission targets specified in the Kyoto Protocol and cut direct greenhouse gas emissions worldwide by more than 70 percent. Through technical improvements and structural changes, Bayer also has cut its worldwide energy use by 26 percent between 2000 and 2005. The Carbon Disclosure Project, a coalition of more than 200 worldwide institutional investors, lists Bayer as "Best in Class" in worldwide climate protection. Bayer was one of the first members of the Chicago Climate Exchange -- the world's first and America's only voluntary, legally binding greenhouse gas reduction and trading system for emission sources in North America and Brazil. Bayer's climate strategy includes developing products that conserve natural resources. These include refrigerator insulation, lightweight automotive materials and thermal insulation for buildings, all of which increase energy efficiency, lower fuel consumption and reduce emissions. Fueling the "green building" revolution are Bayer's innovative coatings, adhesives and polycarbonate materials. Currently under development are nanomaterials. This technology will make films and coatings with enhanced
