    GREEN COMMUNICATION: A POLYCOM COMMITMENT TO THE PLANET

    Polycom HD voice and video solutions are changing the way we communicate. And that’s a good thing for our planet. Although we may be remote from our fellow workers, customers and partners, we no longer have to travel to be effective. Thanks to high definition voice and video, we can meet virtually anytime and from anywhere. Travel is reduced, carbon emissions are reduced – everyone wins.

    Consider this: Every time two people meet over video instead of traveling roundtrip between say LA and New York, they save the carbon emissions equivalent of taking one car off the road for a year. *  (Source: Conservation International)

    Our dedication to a greener planet is as simple as 1-2-3.

    One, we build green products.
    Our products are compatible with renewable energy from diverse sources. We strive to continually improve energy consumption. Our products are RoHs and WEEE compliant.

    Two, we show customers how they can be greener on day one with our solutions.
    With our innovative Going Green with Polycom three step methodology, Polycom in concert with our authorized partners help customers benchmark video readiness; implement systems ensuring service quality and operational efficiency; as well as track and report a video call’s savings in travel miles, cost of travel, carbon depletion and system usage.

    Three, as a global company located in forty countries, we minimize our own environmental impact.
    We strive to continually reduce our carbon impact. We conserve natural resources, recycle whenever possible, and mandate usage of our own solutions in lieu of travel. Our employees are encouraged to reduce their personal emissions using Polycom technologies in the office and from their homes.
