| Partner Profile Motorola Mobility fuses innovative technology with human insights to create experiences that simplify, connect and enrich people's lives. The company's portfolio includes converged mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets; wireless accessories; end-to-end video and data delivery; and management solutions, including set-tops and data-access devices. Since 2005, Motorola Mobility has reduced its carbon footprint by 45 percent through a continual focus on energy efficiency, buying renewable energy and consolidating facilities. Currently, Motorola Mobility is purchasing 80 million kilowatt hours of certified renewable energy certificates, generated from wind-power sources, which represents about 66 percent of the company's U.S. electricity purchases. Motorola Mobility is also assessing the lifecycle climate impacts of its products and making its products more energy efficient. In 2010, the company launched the Motorola CITRUS" and SPICE", its first green smartphones with the latest in eco-design. The devices are made with recycled post-consumer plastic water-cooler bottles and are CarbonFree Certified based on an independent life-cycle assessment. The recycled plastic takes 20 percent less energy to make than virgin plastic, saves thousands of used bottles from going to landfill and creates a market for waste materials. | |
