Environment and Sustainability We are proud of Teledyne’s broad contribution to understanding the environment and humankind’s impact to the health and sustainability of our planet. We provide environmental and climate scientists one of the broadest portfolios of instruments and sensors in the world, including space-based sensors for greenhouse gases, air and water monitoring instruments and autonomous systems and instruments that profile the world’s oceans. Our precision visible and infrared sensors enable NASA’s Orbital Carbon Observatories (in low Earth orbit) and GeoCarb (in geosynchronous orbit) satellite missions to make precise measurements of the sources and sinks of atmospheric carbon dioxide over seasonal and weekly cycles. Our autonomous Slocum® gliders, APEX® drifting floats and our acoustic Doppler current profilers have been used by scientists to confirm warming trends and circulation conditions of the oceans. Our instruments not only enhance climate research that spans decades, but they provided critical data for shorter timescales. Our products measure seasonal variations in ocean temperatures and currents to aid fisheries and determine weather patterns. On a shorter timescale, scientists employ our instruments to provide essential inputs for computer models of dangerous storms. Scientists position our gliders directly in the path of developing storms to monitor real-time conditions via satellite links. Additionally, Teledyne’s product portfolio includes sophisticated air and water quality monitoring instruments to help keep the air we breathe and the water we drink clean. We design, produce and distribute sophisticated air quality instruments that measure hazardous gases and particulate matter in real-time. Our new Teledyne API T640 instrument delivers exceptional sensitivity and precision in ambient particulate monitoring. Our water sampler instruments enable environmental professionals to conveniently collect and safely store water for laboratory analysis and to precisely determine the flow rate of water in wastewater, irrigation and industrial applications. We also have products designed to improve the efficiency of motors, motor drives and industrial automation systems to reduce energy consumption. Our line of motor drive analyzers measure performance dynamically. The high-resolution display and sensitive software tools enable engineers to look inside the motor and motor drive to optimize performance and energy efficiency. Pursuant to the mandate in their respective charters, the audit committee of our board regularly reviews matters related to compliance with environmental laws and the health and safety of employees, and the nominating and governance committee of our board reviews and evaluates our policies and practices and monitors our efforts in areas of legal and social responsibility, diversity and sustainability.
