Supply Chain

We are currently evaluating climate change risks and opportunities across our supply chain. One opportunity that we have actively pursued since 2001 is the Ford-convened Supplier Sustainability Forum. The Forum facilitates the sharing of best practices and the development of future Ford/supplier strategies and metrics, and helps us to better communicate and refine our sustainability policies.

In addition, our requirement that suppliers implement robust environmental management systems will better enable them to understand, measure and report their emissions inventories in the future. We also will seek out opportunities to partner with suppliers to improve the greenhouse gas emissions performance of our products.

As of the second quarter of 2008, all of our Q1 suppliers are ISO 14001 certified.
