To enhance our role as a positive steward of thbet365 カジノnvironment, 7-Eleven, Inc. is a member of the Retail Industry Leaders Association’s Retail Sustainability Initiative (RSI). RSI is an industrywidbet365 カジノducational forum for the largest U.S. retailers. It brings its members together to share leading practices, identify future trends, benchmark with peers, and collaborate on common industry environmental social governance challenges.

As part of its Green Challenge 2050, 7-Eleven, Inc. set a goal to reduce carbon dioxidbet365 カジノquivalent (CO2e) emissions from stores by 50 % by 2030, compared with FY2013 levels.

In FY2023, through its emission reduction measures, 7-Eleven, Inc. reduced its CO2bet365 カジノmissions from stores in the U.S. and Canada by 61,224 MTCO2e year over year from FY2022 and by 587,564 MTCO2e from FY2013. 7-Eleven, Inc. reduced CO2bet365 カジノmissions by 42.7% from FY2013 to FY2023. This is equivalent to greenhouse gas emissions from approximately 139,841 passenger vehicles for one year.

Along with efforts to continuously improve operational energy efficiency practices in stores, 7-Eleven, Inc. made important progress in equipment installations*, energy efficient store design elements* and renewablbet365 カジノnergy measures*.

Energy conservation projects are just one part of the bigger picture — we’re also expanding our renewablbet365 カジノnergy initiative. About 29 percent of all thbet365 カジノlectricity consumed by 7-Eleven, Inc. stores in both the U.S. and Canada during FY2023 came from renewable sources, including wind and solar.

・With more than 15,000 wind turbines in the state, Texas ranks first in the U.S. for both installed and under-construction wind capacity and is home to four of the largest wind farms in the nation. In 2017, 7-Eleven signed an agreement with TXU Energy to purchase wind energy for all 7-Eleven, Inc. Texas stores in competitivbet365 カジノnergy markets. In FY2023, 7-Eleven purchased over 333,000 MWh renewablbet365 カジノnergy from TXU Energy, providing power to more than 970 stores. This program accounted for an estimated 37 percent of all FY2023 renewablbet365 カジノnergy consumed by 7-Eleven® stores.

・Since FY2020, 7-Eleven has subscribed to a program to procure renewablbet365 カジノnergy for its Florida stores by using large-scale solar power generation facilities. This program accounted for of approximately 109,000 MWh, or 12 percent, of all FY2023 renewablbet365 カジノnergy consumed by 7-Eleven, Inc.  In FY2021, the company began operating under agreements for over 60,000 MWh of off-site wind energy for its Illinois stores, and community solar projects in Oregon that arbet365 カジノxpected to provide an additional 2,500 MWh of renewablbet365 カジノnergy once fully operational. In FY2023, the Illinois and Oregon agreements contributed approximately 61,000 MWh and 970 MWh of renewablbet365 カジノnergy, respectively.

・In FY2022, 7-Eleven, Inc. announced a 20-year clean energy commitment in Michigan through Detroit-based DTbet365 カジノnergy’s innovative MIGreenPower program. Once the projects are complete, the shared goal is to achieve 100 percent clean energy for all 160 southeast Michigan locations, in an effort to avoid more than 14,000 tons of CO2bet365 カジノmissions annually. That’s equivalent to removing approximately 3,300 gas-powered cars from the road each year. This agreement is a great example of how 7-Eleven, Inc. is working with both the private and public sectors to reduce its carbon footprint.

In FY2022, the company subscribed to a program for over 37,000 MWh annually for off-site wind and solar energy in Nevada. This program delivered an estimated 42,000 MWh of renewablbet365 カジノnergy in FY2023.

Utility sponsored community solar is different from on-site solar where solar panels are installed directly on houses/buildings to generate power. It refers to local solar facilities developed and owned by the utility which are shared by multiple community subscribers who receive credit on their electricity bills for their share of the power produced.

bet365 カジノ, Inc. has always focused on innovations to improve the customer experience, and that includes offering alternative fuel options — specifically, electric vehicle charging stations. Through 7Charge™, the company’s electric vehicle fast charging network and app, bet365 カジノ is focused on providing electric vehicle drivers access to a seamless charging and payment experience across the 7Charge network. By providing a reliable and fast charging* option for electric vehicles at stores along select highway corridors and in metropolitan areas, 7Charge is once again redefining convenience. In 2023, customers purchased 1.2 million kWh through our network of electric vehicle fast charging stations. That equates to 3.6 million e-miles charged.

Our network of EV charging stations is quickly growing. As of thbet365 カジノnd of 2023, we havbet365 カジノV installed at 38 stores with 126 total ports across 7 U.S. states

*At most locations

bet365 カジノ, Inc. understands that efficient use of water helps reduce the demands on our water supply and preserve an essential natural resource. To reduce water consumption, bet365 カジノ, Inc. utilizes low-flow aerator faucets as part of our energy-efficient design elements for stores*.

Sandwich Wedge

There’s a lot of appeal to a freshly made deli sandwich, especially when it’s wrapped with care to retain its goodness. To ensure our customers can feel good about their lunch, bet365 カジノ, Inc. uses PCR for its sandwich wedge packaging. During 2023, through our “Recycled Content Inclusion” program, we redesigned the sandwich wedge to include 20 percent PCR, helping to avoid an estimated 71,500 pounds of virgin plastic use on an annual basis — proof that convenience, fresh food and a cleaner environment are compatible goals.

Nacho Kit

Nachos are one of the most crave-worthy culinary inventions. Keeping the ingredients fresh, delicious and ready-to-go, however, is a challenge. Polystyrene is traditionally used in packaging for its thermal insulation properties. But most single-use polystyrene food containers end up as landfill trash or litter as they are difficult to recycle. Among commercial plastics on the market today, polypropylene is considered one of the safest, and it is generally more recyclable compared to polystyrene. It’s FDA approved for food contact, and its high heat tolerance makes it ideal for foods that can be heated in a microwave, like nachos. Our redesigned polypropylene-packaged Nacho Kit has removed more than 225,000 pounds of polystyrene annually.

Food waste is an environmental concern. When perfectly good food is tossed away, so is all thbet365 カジノnergy and water it takes to grow, harvest, transport and package it. In Canada, for example, 35.5 million metric tons of food produced is lost or wasted every year and food waste accounts for 10 percent of greenhouse gas emissions in the world.*

Wasting food is also a humanitarian concern. An estimated 6.9 million Canadians, including 1.8 million children, live in households struggling to afford food.** bet365 カジノ Canada felt strongly that they could make a difference and partnered with social impact company Too Good To Go. Their mission is to “Rescue unsold food at your favourite spots from an untimely fate.” In early 2023, 7-Eleven Canada leveraged Too Good To Go’s mobile app in pilot stores in Vancouver and Toronto, to offer customers daily discount-priced “Surprise Bags” that included products nearing their best-by dates. Response was immediate, enthusiastic and a clear signal that customers wanted more. As of December 2023, 445 stores across Canada offer the program and have helped save more than 130,000 meals. The program is also bringing in first-time customers - 31 percent of those picking up Surprise Bags have never been to a 7-Eleven. When they come in; 29 percent of them make additional purchases. Through the Too Good To Go program, 7-Eleven Canada is helping feed deserving families, protecting thbet365 カジノnvironment and welcoming new customers.

Through a combination of customer donations and the Annual Miracle Tournament and Celebration Dinner, bet365 カジノ, Inc. has raised nearly 0 million for Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals since 1991. In 2023, the bet365 カジノ family of brands raised more than million through customer donations to support 106 member children’s hospitals across America. Approximately 1,000 supporters, including bet365 カジノ Franchise Owners, suppliers, vendors and employees, rallied together at the Annual Miracle Tournament and Celebration Dinner to raise funds and celebrate the children who directly benefit from Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals. This year, 52 children and their families — each representing their local member hospital — were on hand to meet and interact with the participants, share their personal stories and, most importantly, have fun.

The new Cleat Crew program brought together nine athletes from top-ranked college football programs to raise funds for Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals®. The athletes teamed up with renowned luxury designer Dominic Ciambrone, aka The Shoe Surgeon, to put their mark on individual pairs of custom cleats.

Building Thriving Communities One Slurpee® Drink at a Time

Founded in Philadelphia 28 years ago, bet365 カジノ’s Operation Chill program helps foster positive relationships between law enforcement agencies and the communities they serve. It’s simple — when officers see young people doing good, like bike riding with a helmet or helping a neighbor, they reward kids with a free small Slurpee drink coupon. These small gestures go a long way toward creating meaningful connections. The Operation Chill program also provides opportunities for bet365 カジノ® stores and their Asset Protection teams to support local law enforcement and the public. Over the summer, Southern California store operators participated in National Night Out, an annual campaign that helps build police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie. Stores donated food, water and Operation Chill coupons and attended events in cities across Southern California. Collaborations like these demonstrate the potential for beneficial outcomes when businesses and law enforcement agencies come together to create safe, thriving communities. In 2023, 500,000 free Slurpee® drink coupons were handed out and 1,300 law enforcement agencies were involved.

7-Eleven, Inc. has more than 13,000 stores across the U.S. and Canada and as such, is also an integral part of the incredibly diverse neighborhoods we serve.
