Fighting climate changeFighting climate change
Xerox is committed to fighting climate change such that we play a role in the sustainability of our world’s natural resources. Xerox has identified four strategic commitment areas where we can make a significant impact on the environment:
• Reducing Energy Use and Protecting the Climate: • Preserving Biodiversity and the World's Forests:
• Preserving Clean Air and Water: •Preventing and Managing Waste:
We invest in technologies that reduce the carbon footprint of our operations and offer solutions to our customers that reduce energy use, cost and waste. Our Net Zero goal is 2040. In 2021, weal so expanded our greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction goal to cover scopes 1, 2 and 3. We plan to achieve net-zero emissions through projects that improve operational efficiency, create new technology innovations, and neutralise residual GHG emissions through carbon compensation mechanisms. Our approach to sustainability includes partnerships to accelerate progress. We have officially joined the UNFCCC’s Race to Zero and SBTi’s Business Ambition for 1.5°C campaigns, aligning our climate mitigation targets to what science dictates is necessary to reduce the destructive impacts of climate change on human society and nature. We are a founding member of Defra’s e-Sustainability Alliance (DeSA), We are actively involved in the provision of best practices on the ways in which IT firms of all sizes can minimise their environmental impacts. We also support the Government Cloud Sustainability project, focusing on ‘Sustainable IT’ (e.g. achieving net-zero, modern slavery and other supply chain matters) and ‘IT for Sustainability’ –including the social pillar, “How to procure and measure performance on all things Cloud”. When selecting our technologies and services for G-Cloud 14,we have utilised this knowledge base and ensured that the services & technology used comply with Government guidance and carry accreditation from 3rd party bodies where appropriate.
