But the G also plays a crucial role in Domtar’s ESG ap- proach. Governance is how Domtar connects the dots from senior leadership to the frontlines of manufacturing, Goff says. Their ESG committee includes leaders from across the organization with a diverse collection of roles and responsibilities. To lead efforts on the company’s six sustainability prior- ities, Domtar created working groups with subject matter experts in each area. These groups focus on putting into practice the improvements that will advance Domtar in water, waste, emissions, fiber sourcing, safety, community engagement, and diversity and inclusion. “Though carbon is the ‘it’ word right now,” Goff says, “We have long been focused on the bigger picture. Our ESG committee is deliberate about our environmental stewardship in a broad range of areas, including water management, responsible fiber procurement, transporta- tion and more. “These really take our efforts beyond just carbon and emissions — though that’s important — to see how we can improve in a number of areas. “Our social responsibility is important to us. We have a legacy of being a good neighbor in our communities, long before ESG was its name. We continue to invest in the places where we operate so that our employees and our communities will thrive together.”
