Partner Quote
“While some assume that cutting carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions cost businesses money, we have found just the opposite. Addressing climate change makes business sense. We have saved more than $100 million since 1998 by conserving energy.”
—Wayne Balta, Vice President, Corporate Environmental Affairs and Product Safety, IBM
