94 Lenovo Group Limited 2013/14 Annual Report
CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY REPORT
Lenovo is committed to reduce and recycle waste and
conserve water. Lenovo tracks waste intensity and
works to identify and implement opportunities to reduce
waste quantities. We achieved a 90% non-hazardous
waste recycling rate for manufacturing and research and
development sites over the past year and achieved our
goal of a global waste intensity equal to or better than the
previous year. Lenovo generates only minimal amounts of
hazardous waste and strives to reduce this amount year
to year. We are planning to start monitoring and reporting
global landfill avoidance rates beginning FY2014/15.
Lenovo tracks and monitors water consumption in
its operations even though it does not have any wet
processes; water is used only for human consumption
and sanitation. Lenovo is evaluating water impacts in its
supply chain and monitors the regulatory performance of
suppliers located in China using the Institute of Public &
Environmental Affairs (IPE) database.
For additional details on Lenovo’s waste and water
inventory, see http://www.lenovo.com/waterandwaste
Lenovo’s energy and GHG emissions data for the last
four years (beginning with the baseline year FY2009/10)
was third-party verified by Bureau Veritas. In addition,
Lenovo’s waste and water data for FY2012/13
was third-party verified. Please see verification
statements at http://www.lenovo.com/climate and
http://www.lenovo.com/waterandwaste. Lenovo plans
to verify FY2013/14 GHG, waste and water data to a
reasonable level of assurance.
Further details on our strategy, objectives, targets
and environmental performance are available at
http://www.lenovo.com/environment. Detailed
results regarding our environmental performance are
published in our annual sustainability report available at
http://www.lenovo.com/sustainability.
Lenovo’s Environmentally Conscious Products program
focused in FY2013/14 on the following key areas:
Product Materials, including the use of post-
consumer recycled content;
Product Energy, including a focus on product carbon
footprint; and
Product Packaging, including size reduction and use
of environmentally preferable materials
In the product materials area, Lenovo has made
tremendous progress in the use of post-consumer
recycled content (PCC) plastics. By working with our
suppliers to develop and qualify engineered grades of
PCC plastics, Lenovo has used more than 133 million
pounds of recycled content plastics with over 55 million
net PCC plastics since beginning these efforts.
