Biodiversity conservation

ExxonMobil believes that biodiversity conservation can be balanced with economic development through careful management of environmental impacts. Our sites incorporate biodiversity protection through their efforts to limit impacts in sensitive areas. Our Environmental Business Planning (EBP) efforts are designed to identify environmental and biodiversity protection objectives and actions that are specific to each location. Our mitigation actions around the world include modifying engineering design, and construction and operating practices to protect specific species and sensitive habitats; undertaking extensive reclamation efforts to restore degraded sites to environmentally acceptable conditions; and participating in initiatives that enhance the wildlife and habitat attributes of our properties.
