Low-carbon, highly intelligent and super-efficient. This is the future of the markets where we provide the innovative communications solutions that allow people, businesses and governments to be more connected and more mobile.
We are already responding to these market shifts. Motorola Solutions is beginning to play an important role in reducing the carbon emissions of customers, primarily by helping to improve their efficiency. Our technologies, for example, streamline supply chains with radio frequency identification, avoid wasted journeys with integrated global positioning systems and will enable more secure and coordinated smart grids.
Markets are demanding ever-greener products, and our focus on green design helps us to stand out in a competitive marketplace. Our strategy is to ensure that our new devices consume less energy than earlier models, innovate in the use of environmentally preferred materials, have extended life-spans and can be easily recycled. Our take-back programs collect electronic equipment for reuse and recycling. Our Green Channel Partner Program is a first-of-its-kind green certification program, developed to increase our channel partners’ knowledge about sustainability.
While helping our customers reduce their environmental footprints, we continue to reduce our own impacts. All our manufacturing sites and larger facilities are certified to the international standards ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001, and our rigorous environment, health and safety management system ensures that we meet our commitment to reduce our own footprint. We continue to increase our use of renewable energy.
As stated in our vision, we have set targets to reduce emissions from our operations and conserve natural resources. These include goals to reduce energy use and continue to implement our climate change strategy.
