EDS Goes Green
EDS' comprehensive global environmental sustainability program focuses on developing eco-friendly client services, as well as initiatives involving employees and the greening of EDS operations around the world.
EDS, an HP company, believes that better business outcomes equal better environmental outcomes and backs this ideal with customized, comprehensive information technology (IT) services that improve clients' energy and cost efficiencies, reduce carbon emissions, conserve natural resources and achieve competitive advantage.
As environmental sustainability moves to the global forefront, there is increasing social and political pressure on businesses to become more environmentally responsible. Enterprises are looking for solutions that can enable them to create environmental benefits now, while continuing to address these critical business imperatives: lowering costs; retaining and growing their customer base; increasing market share; and increasing shareholder value.

We take our environmental responsibilities seriously. The company is addressing environmental sustainability by providing ecologically friendly IT capabilities, promoting efficient operations and demonstrating thought leadership and stewardship with our alliance partners, industry groups and the investment community.
