Fujitsu 2013 Annual Report Download - page 72

The Fujitsu Group will strive to contribute broadly to solving societal issues, such as the global environment. We
can contribute through our business activities, by promoting ICT uptake throughout all of society, and creating
innovative technologies.
Using ICT to Pursue Growth While Contributing to
Solutions for Societal and Environmental Problems
Ever since its founding in 1935, the Fujitsu Group has been
guided by the concept of “operating in harmony with nature.”
We have always taken a long-term perspective in promoting
environmental awareness. This stance is hard-wired into the
Group’s corporate philosophy, the Fujitsu Way, which states
that “in all our actions, we protect the environment and con-
tribute to society.” In other words, helping to make a sustain-
able world is one of the Group’s social responsibilities, and
part of the reason for its existence.
ICT enables more efficient use of resources and energy,
and it also has the potential to play an important role in
solving complex societal and environmental issues. The
Fujitsu Group will continue to create innovations and solu-
tions for our customers’ issues through ICT, and to expand our
Reducing CO2 Emissions through Green ICT
The Fujitsu Group is promoting an environmental burden
reduction project through Green ICT, known as Green Policy
Innovation. Under the project, the Group set a global target
of helping to cut CO2 emissions by more than 15 million tons
in total from fiscal 2009 to 2012. By fiscal 2012, we had
achieved our target, contributing to an approximate 15.6
million ton reduction in CO2. The reduction comprised approx-
imately 3.4 million tons from providing ICT infrastructure, and
12.2 million tons from providing ICT solutions.
business. In doing so, we can also contribute to the creation
of a sustainable, affluent society.
It is also important that the Fujitsu Group itself continues
to reduce its impact on the environment. Our efforts to use
less energy and resources in the life cycles of our products
and services hone our own competitive edge, and a thorough
approach to saving energy in our business operations reduces
costs. These perspectives are essential to achieve excellence
in business.
Guided by this thinking, the Fujitsu Group will promote
the use of ICT throughout society to make an even greater
contribution to solving environmental issues alongside our
customers and society. At the same time, we will reduce the
environmental impact of our business activities in every way,
aiming to achieve the specific targets we have set out in the
Fujitsu Group Environmental Protection Program.
Reducing Greenhouse Gas Emissions
The Fujitsu Group is working to reduce emissions of green-
house gases associated with Group business activities.
Accordingly, we set “reducing our total greenhouse gas emis-
sions by 6% by the end of fiscal 2012 compared with fiscal
1990” as a goal of the Fujitsu Group Environmental Protection
Program (Stage VI). We achieved our goal with actual total
emissions in fiscal 2012 of approximately 1.0 million tons, a
reduction of 24.4% compared with fiscal 1990.

Principle Environmental Performance Data for Fiscal 2012
(Note 1) CO2 emissions in/outside Japan: Purchased electric power based on performance
reports under the Fujitsu Group’s Environmental Protection Program. CO2 conversion
coefficient calculations performed with a fixed value of 0.407 ton of CO2 per MWh
since fiscal 2002.
(Note 2) Greenhouse gases other than CO2: Converted to equivalent amounts of CO2 using
the global warming potential (GWP) of each gas. Our fiscal 1995 performance is
taken to be the emissions in fiscal 1990.
