Dell's vision is to create a company culture where environmental excellence is second nature because the principles of environmentalism - efficiency eliminates waste - align with the principles of our direct business model - efficiency delivers customer value. Dell's goal is to be a careful steward of the environment and to implement programs and processes to ensure our operations and products are environmentally sound. At a corporate level, we meet this goal with a comprehensive environmental policy and communication and reports on our environmental progress. Dell also works to improve the local environment in communities where we work and to create strategic partnerships with organizations equally committed to environmental goals. Dell's direct business model guides our commitment to direct
engagement with employees, customers and suppliers. We also
engage in direct dialogue with socially responsible investment
groups, shareholder activists, and a wide variety of nongovernmental
organizations that are seeking business engagement to
find global solutions for many social and environmental concerns. |
