Our 41,000 team members understand that it's not just what we do that matters, but how we do it.</p><p></p><p>
Our company values guide our daily actions:</p><ul><li><p><b>

</p><p></p><p><b>STRATEGY</b></p><p>
Republic Services&rsquo; strategy is designed to generate profitable growth. Through acquisitions and industry advancements, we safely and sustainably manage our customers&rsquo; multiple waste streams through a North American footprint of vertically integrated assets.</p><p>
We focus on three areas of growth to meet the increasing needs of our customers: recycling and waste, environmental solutions and sustainability innovation.</p><p>
With our integrated approach, strengthening our position in one area advances other areas of our business. For example, as we grow volume in recycling and waste, we collect additional material to bolster our circularity capabilities. And as we expand environmental solutions, we drive additional opportunities to provide these services to our existing recycling and waste customers.</p><p></p><p><b>
Recycling and Waste</b></p><p>
We continue to expand our recycling and waste business footprint throughout North America through organic growth and targeted acquisitions. The 13 million customers we serve and our more than 5 million pick-ups per day provide us with a distinct advantage. We aggregate materials at scale, unlocking new opportunities for advanced recycling. In addition, we are cross-selling new products and services to better meet our customers&rsquo; specific needs.</p><p></p><p><b>
Environmental Solutions</b></p><p>
Our comprehensive environmental solutions capabilities help customers safely manage their most technical waste streams. We are expanding both our capabilities and our geographic footprint. We see strong growth opportunities for our offerings, including PFAS remediation, an increasing customer need.</p><p><b><br>
SUSTAINABILITY INNOVATION</b></p><p>
Republic&rsquo;s recent innovations to advance circularity and decarbonization demonstrate our unique ability to leverage sustainability as a platform for growth.</p><p></p><p>
The Republic Services Polymer Center is the nation&rsquo;s first integrated plastics recycling facility. This innovative site processes rigid plastics from our recycling centers, producing recycled materials that promote true bottle-to-bottle circularity. We also formed Blue Polymers, a joint venture with Ravago, to develop facilities that will further process plastic material from our Polymer Centers to help meet the growing demand for sustainable packaging. We are building a network of Polymer Centers and Blue Polymer facilities across North America.</p><p></p><p>
We continue to advance decarbonization at our landfills. As demand for renewable energy continues to grow, we have 70 landfill gas-to-energy projects in operation and plan to expand our portfolio to 115 projects by 2028.</p><p></p><p><b>
