Greenhouse Gas EmissionsMany organizations account and report on the emissions they generate, and have set goals to reduce these emissions over time. Increasingly, organizations have also begun to engage with their supply chains to account for emissions from “cradle to grave,” meaning along the complete lifecycle. By collaborating with suppliers, organizations can assess what emissions are material to their business, and look for innovative ways to reduce them. Iron Mountain Data Centers' procurement of 100% renewable energy and the Green Power Pass product give organizations access to clean energy, enabling their data center load to support their Net Zero goals.
WastePollution has become a growing concern, and there are global efforts underway seeking ways to clean up and reduce additional pollution. Organisations are exploring innovative ways to apply Circular Economy principles into their operations, divert waste from landfills, or even go “zero waste.” Iron Mountain applauds these efforts, and can support them in a number of ways. Secure IT Asset Disposition can help organisations refurbish and recycle electronics. Our Secure Shredding program recycles all collected paper, and even provides a Green Report to provide essential ESG reporting data as well as helpful and customised information on the environmental benefits from each of our customers’ programs.
