Xerox Commits to Report Emissions with California Climate Action Registry

Xerox Corporation (NYSE: XRX) has joined the California Climate Action Registry (Registry), a distinguished group of organizations demonstrating leadership by voluntarily taking action on climate change. As a member, Xerox will work with the Registry to annually track, report and certify its greenhouse gas emissions, the main drivers of global warming.

A global technology leader operating in over 160 countries, Xerox has pledged to cut greenhouse gas emissions from worldwide operations by 10 percent from 2002 to 2012. Thanks to comprehensive energy management, new technologies and other strategies, the company is on track to meet that commitment.

The Registry, created by the California legislature in 2000, helps companies and organizations throughout the United States to track, publicly report and reduce their greenhouse gas emissions. The results are certified by independent third-parties to ensure compliance with Registry protocols and standardization across participants and sectors. The Registry has been widely recognized as a gold standard for public reporting of greenhouse gases.

“Saving energy and associated greenhouse gas emissions is environmentally responsible and financially smart,” said Patricia Calkins, Xerox’s global vice president of Environment, Health and Safety. “Joining the Registry will help us accurately measure our progress and aligns with the core values Xerox has followed since its inception to protect the environment and to push ourselves to ever-higher standards of performance.”
