  Fighting climate change

  CDW is committed to fighting climate change and protecting the environment. CDW has made a commitment to achieve Net Zero emissions by 2040, 10 years earlier than mandated by the UK government. To achieve this, CDW has implemented (and continues to implement) initiatives to reduce our emissions and carbon footprint, all of which are underpinned by CDW’s ISO14001 certified Environmental Management System (EMS) and our beGreen program.; ; CDW’s distribution centre and our flagship offices hold ISO 14001 environmental management certifications, with our UK distribution centre also holding REGO energy certifications. In parallel with our EMS and beGreen program, CDW has invested in and implemented a range of initiatives to help tackle our contribution towards climate change across our operational activities. These initiatives include (but are not limited to):; ; -Solar panel usage. As a result, in 2021, we were able to achieve 100% renewable energy sourcing for CDW-owned buildings.; -Energy-efficient lighting solutions, including indoor and outdoor LED lighting.; -Motion sensor lighting and conveyor systems that turn off in response to inactivity.; -Water consumption solutions, including rainwater harvesting efforts.; -“Smart” HVAC systems that adjust according to business hours and seasonal temperatures.; -A ‘Pin to Print’ program enabling enhanced print queue management to reduce wasted print jobs; -A goal to achieve 100% renewable energy sourcing for electricity by 2027. In 2021, 98% of electricity consumed in the UK was from renewable sources.; ; Additionally, at our distribution centres, we have recycled:; ; -2,966 tons of packaging material; -9,794 tons of cardboard; -636 tons of paper; -Thousands of wood and plastic pallets; ; Furthermore, at a coworker level, CDW has established a ‘WE GET Our Environment’ Business Resource Group and an Environment Committee with the purpose of increasing awareness of the environmental and social strategy, and to empower coworkers to get involved in environmental initiatives.
